I went down to the Main Steet today as the money i had was burning a hole in my pocket and i had seen something i wanted to buy (see last post)
I had a couple of letters to post too.
then i went up to my pal Linda's for a chat and a cuppa,she stays just off the Main street.
She stays in a Tennement Building and is at the top or 'The tap dancer' as my dad used to say!
Boy i need oxygen by the time i climb all the stairs.
So we are sitting gabbing and the whole place starts shaking and i'm like "Is this building shaking?"
"Yes" she says "It happens when the trains go past"
I could just imagine the whole building crumbling! and it is a big building.
"That is really scarey" I said
"That's nothing" she said "It can be 10 times worse than that"
So we talked about what it is going to be like once the mottorway is up and running because they are building an extension of the M74 right next to her building. (that will be a lovely landmark for our Burgh)
Think it will be completed in a couple of years.
Then she said "Oh my God!, I thought i was seeing things there! Look at that guy walking along the roof"
Sure enough a guy was causualy walking along the roof of the tennement opposite,no harness or nothing,Nutjob!
