I got up at 7 to make my wife some tea before she went to work
Then I ate some cornflakes and watched Lorrain and GMTV
I dyed some clothes and hung them out to dry
At 10 I went into town, I got £550 out the bank to pay the mortgage man
Then I went to Todmorden market to buy boiled linseed oil, drain cleaner and dettol
I got the bus back to Cornholme
I stopped in the shop, bought some bread, wine gums and a lottery ticket
I got home and made a chicken sandwich
Started painting til 7
Then the wife was home
Gave her her supper
We watched TV
Heard a punch upoutside
She said don’t get involved
I checked my lottery ticket
Did not score a single one
And so to tomorrow
