Ha! I leave such hi-jinks to the childer.
The idea of being in that situation now scares me. I am left somewhat shaking my head in bemusement at my younger self . I remember me and J running along the outer edge of the poll tax demo, trying to get to the front where the demo met the police. Saw several people coming the other way, back from what had turned into a frontline battle, with headwounds - some lay on the grass verge being tended to by first aiders.
We kept running along the sides, pushing past to get to the action. What the fuck was going on in my head?
It's all very different when you're 18 and immortal.
