Mum was playing awful music from the kitchen we could hear it upstairs.
"oh my gosh my ears are gonna burst" i whine, Dad laughed as he brings the stools down.
"'ere fancy a caramel biscuit?"
"oh yeah" we go upstairs and into the kitchen where Mum is doing something
"Linda...Linda what you doing" Dad asks above the noise as i look for the biscuits
"making a list" she replies and he turns of the music.
"oh not today Mick don't start on me today I've got too much on"
"i ain't said nothing" he says
"then don't"
"your gonna do great now where's them caramel biscuits" he asks
"in the cupboard" she point to one i didn't look in and i pulled two out giving one too Dad, Mum plays the music and Nancy comes in switching it off.
"Mum what you doing i was on the phone" Nancy complains
"well now your off the phone so go downstairs and make yourself useful" Johnny comes in
"Mum, Mum"
"what is it?" she stresses
"Michael Ball called he wants his CD back" we laughed
"well I'm glad this is one big joke to you lot" she sighs
"it's not a joke love come on"
"well get back down there and finish them signs now help out our community and our business...don't you roll your eyes at me young lady you don't know how lucky you are sometimes" Mum says then points to Nancy.
"your mothers right you three go on back downstairs." he smirks
"i was talking to you as well Mick" she retorts
"'ere i haven't even had my biscuit yet" she takes a bit of his whereas i have nearly finished mine Nancy nicks his other half.
"this is going to be fun in it" she heads out and so do i looking back
"Viva la revolution" Johnny teases spinning out then gives mums phone back.

i was downstairs helping with the signs when...
"chop chop councillors" i winced as i loved over at Mum with a mega phone
"Mum what do you think you're doing?" i ask
"where did you get that from" Dad questions as she comes over.
"community centre" she speaks through it again
"Mum seriously cut it out Nancy has a hangover" i point to my sister who is still reeling from the night before.
"do you really thing those council toffs are going to listen to you?" Shirley asks
"well that's the whole point of marching isn't it. making them listen" she replied
"i don't even get why were doing this we don't even work in the market" Nance wonders
"half our trade come in off that street, gimmie that board" Dad tells her
"exactly if its society they want then we are gonna give it to the right between the eyes." Mum took off her coat and scarf as we continued.
