pleased with it myself
Hey Andy guess what
What?
I woke up this morning, I felt a little bit

You know
what it means
No, I know what
pregnant means
You don't half

another little baby
You're too old to have
a baby ain't you?

You may not be
I am
You wouldn't see me
for dust, I tell you
Oh don't Andy

Typical, typical man
Oh shut up, what do

to myself ah nevermind

till I'm a Grandma
You're going to have a long wait
Yeah
Eh?
Who would want them?
Oh that's nice
Stick a couple of brown paper
bags over their heads
Might be able to flog them
off cheap, sight unseen
Anyway I'm not
going to waste my life

reveal that at this stage
Why not?
It's a surprise

I think it's a load of old crap

What's the matter with it? -
Look at the state of it
Nah, coat of paint
You're looking at
the future mate
This could be the catalyst
that sparks the revolution
This is what you've
always wanted
I want this like I want
a hole in the head
This is your chance to
break out of the rat race
We should
get a cat
Eh?
Get another
cat like Tigger
What a little kitten? -
Yeah
Nah
I don't want a moggy
scratching all me furniture
Why do you
want a cat?
No
I don't know
why I said it really
We could get a big Rottweiller
then it might eat Nicola
That's a
good idea
That's one way
of getting rid of her
We should
get a crocodile
My hair's
falling out
Yeah well stop
pulling it then
It still
falls out
It's really
nice hair
Are you taking
the piss?
No I mean it
I'm sincere
Bollocks
You're a really
attractive girl y'know
No I'm not
I'm too fat
Fat? What is fat?
It's all in the mind
Do you want
to put it down
Yeah
I think it's on the turn
but I didn't want to waste it
I had a few ideas
but, y'know
Why didn't
you eat it?
Great knees
Look at this

I value my health to much
No no feel free
No way
Ripe isn't it
It's just a bit musty

something died in here
Are you sure this is
on the level Patsy?
Of course it is it

paperwork, the tax-man y'know
How do

a week I'll make up the difference
Oh that's
not bad
Oh that sounds alright yeah

I don't want to talk
about money anyway

That's all
Little beauty

What do you think I want the
bin bags for? of course it's rubbish
It's all rubbish
I know that
That's why I want to get this lot
cleared out then I can see what I've got
Well I'm sorry Andy I can't
get any enthusiasm for it

To be honest with you I
would appreciate if you could
Could do with a bit
of moral support
You'll have to get
a license y'know

thousand quid
Oh Andy
You're just a
big softy you are
Well who's to say, alright it's a risk

You're a
fake
I am intelligent
Are you coming
upstairs?
No
Well piss
off then
Alright
Blimey days Nicola
look at the state of you
You're sitting there like there's a grey cloud
over you it's like the sun's gone in
You've got no energy 'cause
you don't eat your dinners
and you've got
no joy in your soul
How do
you know?
I know because you've given up
'cause your not happy, that's how I know
I am
happy
You've lost
all your friends
I don't see them knocking
on the door anymore
I don't want friends
they dissapoint you
I mean you say you
want to change the world
You're supposed to be political but
I don't see you doing anything about it
I am political
and shut
the door
How are
you political?
I read the paper
I watch the news
I'm more political
than you
Oh blimey Nicola
We can all watch the telly
You should be out there helping the old aged
pensioners or going on marches or whatever
Marches are a waste
of time it's boring
If you put your money where your mouth
is you should be joining one of these socialist
what's it groups
Or the nuclear disarmament
whatever but you don't
All you do is sit here in this room staring
at the walls and tweeking and twitching
and you're
so perfect?
No
I'm not perfect but
I haven't given up
I'm still out
there fighting
and I tell you
what Nicola
Every time I look out that window and I
see that rusty old caravan sitting there
Do you know what
it says to me?
It says to me there's a man
who hasn't given up either
Who's still out there fighting
looking for his dream
Well it says to me there's
a man who's getting greedy
Greedy?
You're Dad?
He's the most unselfish
man I've ever met
Do you know he's up at
six o'clock every morning
Slogging his guts out
in a job he hates
Which is more
than you do
and he still comes home at the
end of the week with sod all
I'm not prepared
to be exploited
Exploited?
You're not prepared
to work full stop
You've accepted Nat as a plumber
and you didn't like that at first
No I didn't
I didn't like it
But I can see now I was
wrong because she's happy
I don't know what
I want to do yet
Oh don't
you?
Well you had
your chance Nicola
When you were seventeen when you were
at the college doing your three A levels
You were going great and
then suddenly you stopped
You stopped eating, you stopped everything
you ended up eight weeks in the hospital
Well you put me there
I didn't want to go
Oh for Gods sake Nicola
you were at deaths door
You were trying to
control my life
You were dieing -
No I wasn't
Yes you were
I'd know if
I was dieing
Doctor Harris told us
you had two weeks to live
You didn't know
that did you?
Three of us coming home every
night crying our eyes out
You were lucky
Life's not
easy Nicola
I could of
given up right?
Sixteen I was
doing me A levels
What A levels?
English and business studies
if you must know
Then I got pregnant
with twins
Well why didn't you
have an abortion?
Because I didn't
want one
Because I had two little lives
growing inside me
I don't beleive in it
that's the easy way out
You're Dad was only seventeen
he was at catering college
and he was working in hotels at night
trying to get a bit extra
We got a little flat together
begged and borrowed a couple of cots
and when the two of you were
born we were thrilled to bits
Because we had two
lovely little babies
We came through
laughing
Well don't blame me
I didn't ask to be born
I'm not blaming
you Nicola
I just want you to be happy
that's all, and you're not
I wouldn't care what
blooming job you did
I wouldn't care how scruffy you
looked as long as you were happy
But you're not
something inside you has died
You've given up
and if one day I could just
walk throught that door
and you could look at me
and you could say look Mum
Help me please I don't know what
I'm doing I don't know where I'm going
Then I'd say great because now
we can be honest with each another
Now we can
start talking
But I'm not
in a mess
Aren't you?
You're giving me a problem
when I haven't got one
Why Nicola
If you hate
me so much
Why don't you
throw me out?
We don't
hate you
We love
you, right?
You stupid girl
What've you done you silly sod?
I think I've broke me ankle
Jesus -
Don't touch it lay flat
Breathe
breathe
I am breathing for Christs sake -
Lay flat, relax
Got to help you
I'll be back
