Have you ever been in a fight?
“I have had a few of those, unfortunately. Most of the fights I had, I got the shit kicked out of me because there was more than one person against me. I’ve never deserved getting hit more than this one guy who punched me in the face. Me and my mates were walking past this row of houses in High Heath, one of my friends finished his beer and smashed his bottled on the road like an idiot, and this guy shouted at us from his house to clear it up. Because we were drunken teenagers we were like, ‘Yeah, whatever, fuck off.’ He came roaring out of his house telling me to pick up the glass, I said no, and he banged me three or four times in the face. I’ve had my nose broken three or four times, he was one of them, but I deserved it. It was a wakeup call to stop being such a rowdy little shit.”
