Parly Road: The Glasgow Chronicles 1 - Plot & Excerpts
“Come oan, Betty, where ur ye?” Helen said tae hersel fur the umpteenth time in the last forty five minutes. Betty hid been gone fur o’er an hour so Helen assumed that it must be a no-goer. How the hell did they keep managing tae get themsels intae this situation, time and time again? She looked doon at her scribbled calculations. Even if she stoapped smoking, which wid save them jist under three bob a week, they’d still be fourteen bob short ae whit they needed tae survive before they even attempted tae square aff some ae the debt. It jist didnae seem fair. Jimmy wis taking hame fourteen quid a week and she goat two fur the cleaning at the school. It hid been nearly a week noo since the electric hid been cut aff. The lassies wur gaun mental and who could blame them? If it hidnae been fur the candles, Johnboy probably widnae hiv noticed any difference, especially since the school holidays hid started. In fact, she couldnae remember seeing him hivving a wash other than his hauns before sitting doon fur his tea this past week.
