THE Friday Boys are a disparate group of men spread across Tyneside who meet once a week - 'always on a Friday' - to talk about the arts, raise a glass to recently departed heroes and villains and, at the evening's end, down a whisky or two. The FBs have only one golden rule - talk of the working week is strictly off-limit.

Written by Andy Hughes. Kettle/black or what.
ReplyDeleteYet more veiled attacks on my brother Paul, who has recently turned his life around in terms of the demon drink. I WON'T stand this public condemnation of a worthy man who has taken the cure and just gotten through.
ReplyDeleteIf Paul tells you he has beaten the bottle just remember that his grip on the truth is even more tenuous.
ReplyDeleteHe said that to me, but I thought he was speaking metaphorically.
