Did you take a piss in it though?? or was that for ****age hellraisers like me??

Come to think of it, I reckon my dad just liked burning stuff. He once told me how he'd accidentally set fire to a railway hut near where modern day Weaverthorpe Road railway tunnel is in Woodthorpe.

To offer further insight into my character, a friend and I once found some mucky mags up by Dorket Head and instead of taking them to his house on Calverton Road we hid them in the basement of the church next door. I'm sure there is a place in hell reserved for me!
