"And you haven't got to live with me! The wife can tell you the rest!"

I was going to talk about the wife. Not only was I sure he had one I was sure he'd let you know he still enjoys an active sex life with her and still loves her tits, even after all these years.

Been fishing with Mick a few times, he's not always the loner he makes out...good times...we were out on the river the night Diana died, was a shitty night, loads of rain, so we decided to head back to the car to crash out, but somehow we'd locked ourselves out so we had to smash a window to get in. Slept in the car (well, tried to, with wind and rain coming through the smashed window), and woke up to the news about Diana. Seemed appropriate, somehow.

there's a guy i see on the canal who reminds me of mick harris. he was out fishing really early this morning, smoking a spliff. there's another guy with face tattoos who has a parrot, i had a chat with him the other day.

i asked him about the parrot. he said it was one on one thing with the parrot. When he had a wife, the parrot had to be kept in another room. he said he's very close with it, he's had it since it was a chick. and they mostly outlive their owners, average lifespan for parrots is 90-100 years.

he's got tattoos all over his face and head, had his top off, more tattoos. and this great way of gesturing while he talked, moving his arms a lot, moving his entire body really. he sort of reminds me of waynegro from "heat" someone like that.

I was on the train once and a guy whose face and skull were fully tattooed sat next to me - I carried on reading while wondering what his story was, thinking he had inked himself out of any possibility of employment, what did he do for money - then I noticed bird noises, lots of chirping and cheeping - a woman in another seat started talking to him asking him "what type of birds are those?" - that's when I realised the bird sounds were coming from the luggage rack behind us - there were about 30 little chicks sitting in cardboard egg trays - he started telling the woman that the chicks were fighting bantams, that "the traveller lads" would pay a £1000 each for them for their cockfighting sessions, and then it struck me that there was about £30,000 just sitting there in the luggage rack and he maybe the richest person in the carriage.. then some officious businesswoman started storming down the aisle intent on complaining about the noise, saw his fully tattooed head and promptly turned on her heels, her complaints no longer verbalised...

that reminds me of the Vice documentary on "blackwork", where the whole point of the tattooing seems to be about inflicting and enduring pain
