Stuck on an Island for 2 days, I was 16, best time of my life

Spike Island's big dance scene

 

Just reading a blog by Victoria there http://furrynuff.wordpress.com/2013/01/24/the-blonde-was-called-freedom-the-dark-one-enterprise/comment-page-1/#comment-3065

Reminded me of the time about 20/30 of me and my friends got stuck on an Island in the River Forth for 2 days due to over sleeping and the tide. We were all about 15/16, we had beer, cannabis, LOUD MUSIC, Peace and quiet and lots of fun. The blog was similar, but it reminded me of my story, and this song. As I approach 40 (I know, I know) I am looking back with ease to my youth when a Shit I did not give. Just fun and “School?” what’s School? We just partied hard and got terribly drunk and just danced for two days. If truth be told, I don’t think we wanted to be saved, I think we all could happily have lived on that island and in that moment for all of time.

Being  young, some took it for granted, some never, I certainly never, I lived it to its fullest, I think I knew going to be a Dad the next year I had to just enjoy every second of what I had left of my childhood. It was amazing, we really could have stayed the night, over and over, so here is the song to go with the story

Here is to staying young while getting old lol, this song just takes me right back there

Have a great weekend Word Press!

have-a-great-weekend-6

 

Well I had a few hours sleep earlier, now I have one eye syndrome, and REALLY need a good nights sleep. But before I go, I hope you have a great weekend. I know the last few days I have probably came across as a PIMA (Pain in your Ass) But I explained best why. I try to be truthful and honest. I was and still am very sore, Medication taken 10 minutes ago, so will kick in when my head hits the pillow. Lack of sleep due to pain and the medication made me do something I promised I would not do here, Argue!! 🙂 Or Heavy debate perhaps?

Anyway I am not going to say sorry for my actions for ever, so this is the last time. I  want to be a good lad and a good friend to you all, not because “It is the right thing to do” but because it is what I want to do. Friendship is VERY important to me, In real life, once I am your friend, we need an operation to separate that friendship 🙂 I call it a “Be-friendacostamy procedure” And be you a friend in my real life away from the Internet, as a few here are, or someone from India, Canada, Australia, South American, Africa and South Africa, USA, The middle east or Europe? I appreciate the friendship. Today when many read my blog saying “This may be my last blog” And it never was going to be, it was all the above talking, to hear so many here and in  E,mail and Skype and other mediums of Social Media ask me not to leave was amazing and humbling. I say again, I do not ask for awards, or to be liked or be different, They are just pictures, but pictures with a meaning from a friend who spend time, so I give back. I never ask to be liked, I just know people will like me if I just be myself, what I do, Soccer Manager means I can talk the back side of a donkey!! Ask Yaussiechick from our chats on Skype 🙂 She listens well to me go on and on and on. I could be an advert for the Duracell battery 🙂

So again, have a great weekend. It is Soccer/Football weekend here and a big one, I may be going to Glasgow on Sunday for this:

Celtic Vs Dundee United, Scottish Cup Semi Final, Sunday 14th April, Hampden Park, Glasgow

Celtic Vs Dundee United, Scottish Cup Semi Final, Sunday 14th April, Hampden Park, Glasgow (Old Picture obviously) 

So no matter where you are in the world, what your plans are, be you going out, staying in, going for a meal, going to watch a show or go to the movies or having a nice romantic weekend in with your partner, or whatever, please, have fun. And Today through this blog here I  re-blogged this http://prayingforoneday.wordpress.com/2013/04/12/possum-ergo-facit-i-can-therefore-i-do/ I learnt one hell of a lesson from a remarkable young man who against all the odd’s is living his dream. I will no ruin the blog for you, please read it, and once you have read it, ask if a silly debate online is important, I learnt today it is not. This blog I cried while I read, I ask you all read it, I know many will see the emotion in this amazing story about an amazing young man

Get Drunk, Stay sober, go out, stay in, go to visit family, go for many drinks, whatever you are doing, please, on me, make sure you enjoy each moment 🙂
