11:15cheers
11:18is she alone from school yet not yet why
11:22it's about time i had a word brother that's why
11:24what about about this lofty business oh his hair yeah
11:28no it's not about his hair and i don't think it's that funny
11:31oh well what then
11:32well it was only a few weeks ago she was with kelvin now she's with lofty
11:36at this rate she goes with all the boys on the square by next term
11:39she's at the age isn't she
11:41doesn't it worry you
11:42no should it
11:43yes he's totally unsuitable
11:46what lofty
11:47he's a nice enough lad i know
11:49but when it comes down to it he's a layabout isn't he
11:51well he's unemployed yeah but i thought you'd have understood about that
11:55we're talking about two entirely different things pauline
11:58i'm out of work yeah but i'm trying to find a job
12:01i spend my time thinking about finding a job
12:04i work at finding a job
12:05but lofty doesn't seem to bother him at all
12:08what's it got to do with chel
12:10it's obvious isn't it i don't think she should be going out with a boy like that
12:14well i don't think she's going out with him like that
12:17i mean it's more of a brother and sister relationship i reckon
12:19if you believe that you'll believe anything
12:21a lad of that age has only one thing on his mind
12:24and i don't think chel's doing anything to put him off
12:28hello love hello
12:29hello
12:30i've just brought lofty back to do a salvage job in his hair
12:33that's all right love

12:51no michelle wouldn't
12:52how many parents have said that and then been sorry
12:56well if you really think like that we better do something before something serious happens
