Where the hell is Green Lane

I have lived in Middlesbrough for all of me puny existence and I have no idea were anything is. This realisation has come about due to a few conversations and also a few missed appointments that could have so easily been avoided. I am not alone with this problem as I am sure Samayra also suffers from the same condition.

When I went to Jessica’s party I was concerned that Gemma might have to fork out the money for a Taxi home so that she could get home safely. Now me being a gentleman and a bit tipsy at this point said I would walk her home to save her the money ( I know how money can disappear in an instant if you don’t think about it and being skint is not the best thing). Now I got the impression that she either decided that this was not a good idea for two: reasons one she was repulsed at the idea (I have no self esteem so this would not surprise ma and I am a bit chubby and am not really that fit. I will be the first to admit this and also due to the fact that I was a tad drunk. I use the word tad lightly and in exclamation marks. I just hope she never got the wrong idea at the time) or it was a fair distance from The Central where we were. Now in reflection it was a silly thing suggest because I was leathered and I thought that the walk would clear my head before I got home. Now I do remember her telling me it takes a fair time to get from her house to town and it only takes ten minutes to get to her house from Macmillan. Now with this in my mind at the time I thought hey it will be just a walk through town. Stupid me Green Lane is near grove hill. DUH. No wonder she did not want to walk home. It would have taken a good hour and it not such a good area to walk at night. If someone had started a fight I would have also gone medieval on there hiny or ape shit because I cannot stand seeing any of my friends in proper discomfort or pain. This is due to my apparent aggressive nature surfacing due to drink. This aggressive tendency was explained to me by Carl and I don’t think it is justified.

Next time I offer to go somewhere by foot I must remember to find out how far it is and how long it would take. This will help me in understanding peoples reactions and be able to judge whether it is a good idea or not as the case may be. I must also never go drinking without having a good meal beforehand as the alcohol goes straight to my head.There are lessons to be learnt here.
