See, love between a man and a woman, well … Joe done wrong, a’ course he done wrong. He done the worst thing next on nigh killin’ me. He killed me love, didn’t he? I suppose he musta done. Next on nigh. And I didn’t go back to him, like a lot a’ girls do, no, I didn’t. And I don’t know why girls go back, but they do, every day of the week. But, when he was in his heyday, you know, when he was strong and really young and that, and Billy was just born, he was a good man to me. He wasn’t like some of them young fellas, wouldn’t be seen dead wheelin’ a pram. Not that we had a pram. But we had the wheelier, you know, that nice wheelier that Joe’s mam bought in the first flush, you know, when the little chiseller was born.

‘My grandson.’

It was the Rolls-Royce of wheeliers, so it was.
