Flashback, one Saturday pm 1974
While eating a sandwich Mac rides his bike down a hill, he slowly loses control veering into a gully and smashes into someone's driveway that bridges the gully. Mac's bike is stuffed and he is in shock. Who comes to the gate but Miss Touzelle - the mostest hottest teacher in our boys high school. She nurses me, tends to my shock and takes me home. I was the envy of my buddies who refused to believe it and whom were prying for more and more info.

I had a mate from Glasgow and if some horrible crime was committed he used to say " hanging is too good for these bastards, it's a good kick up the arse they need "
