Bit of a wreck really…

This man is a bit of a wreck.

Saw him on Old Kent Road…

He had a dog that sat on the ground and repeatedly scratched his snout with his paw. 

The man stood in front of me and was chatting on a mobile phone.  I heard him tell his friend that he was “just sittin’ on a bench having a drink,  just chillin… ”

His eyes told me that he had been doing that for a very long time.

He said his ‘Key Worker’ just passed by and saw him with a drink and gave him grief.  He said the Key worker nagged him saying ”what are you doing with your life and you shouldn’t be drinking and blah blah blah”… 

I then heard him say that he was just a bloke and that’s what blokes do…
