My guardian was a copper. Brought home his work aggression and took it out on me used to get me to shine his cop shoes till i could see my face in them treated me like a possession. So i pissed in his shoes. Never again did i have to shine them.

The Kew Boys had a reputation back in those days. They used to hang around the Kew laundry tell jokes and threw a couple twisties at people walking past and wolf whistle at the hot chicks walking past. Unbelievable stuff

[@Noelzsazsa]

Yeah they were the boys on their way home from St Kevin's throwing them twisties at the Scott's college kids even seen a spilt milkshake when the ranga kid was there

[@midyouthcrisis1]

Hang on... States he was in a commission house but his Dad was a very senior police officer? That doesnt make sense... a lot of people these days try to downplay how comfortable they grew up!

[@andrewcarvin]
