“But I enjoyed myself a little bit too much.

“I’m getting to the age now where I’m kind of taking over everything myself.

“It would be lovely to come home and have a lovely lady cook me dinner and that. What can I say?

“I think the drink helped me out a lot. I think if I was sober I would’ve handled it a lot different. But I was in the mood.

“I remember speaking to Lockie before and saying how nervous I am.
