1980, I was just 18 and was invited to a 21st at OT cricket ground with a work colleague from the Evening News
Pretty boring, so he suggested we head into town, so we go to Cellar Vie just off Deansgate
He was 22 so obviously experienced in drinking.
Ordered a bottle of Hungarian Bulls Blood, and from that point on, the night was going rapidly downhill
To this day, 37 years later, I don’t have a clue how I got home, but waking up on that Sunday morning, left an indelible mark on my alcohol habits
It was a weird sensation waking up with my first mother of all hangovers, but that was nothing by what I was about to discover lay under my sheets.
A warm sticky sensation all over the back of my legs, going up my back.
Shit everywhere!!!
Between the toes, you mame it, I was almost covered up to my chest.
What the fuck will Mum say about the state of the sheets?
Jump out of bed straight into the bath for a good scrubbing and time to think
Right, strip the bed, new sheets on, get rid of the old shit covered sheets
Maybe I was still pissed from the night before, but for some fucking weird reason , I folded them , sans shit, as neatly as possible and deposited them in the clothing donations bin at Stretford Sports Centre !!!
