AlCapone 7,678 Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Turned 43 on the 3rd of this month, mate.Lost his battle with the drink I'm afraid.Last few years he hasn't been the same if I'm honest, but I'll always remember him as a good man who couldn't defeat his demons .Really sorry to hear that AC, we can all joke about the drink but it really is the devil for some folk, it could so easy have been any one of us and its just the through of the dice tro see who's affected,.43 is nothing, i'm 45 znd I still feel like i'm 18... it must feel like your old mans still a boy.really sorry for you mate, I like the cut of your old man.

Creampuff 22,628 Posted December 17, 2011 Author Share Posted December 17, 2011 In two minds as to whether or not I'm going to the game tomorrow.It'll be a weird thing to do, but the old man was at Ibrox when I was born (I think my maw nearly chucked him for asking if she couldn't have held it in for another 3 minutes so I could be born at the same time Ally scored ) so it'd probably be what he'd want .
