I'd to take a run over to the City
Airport this afternoon as Party Time had sent word that he was coming
back from London today and that he wanted me there waiting for him getting
off the plane. I reckoned this were him anticipating himself going
bananas again, like when he came back that last time loaded and I'd to
chase him across a McDonald's carpark when he went after this cripple
with a screwdriver. His instructions to me were to inject him with
tranquilizers and/or taze him were he to act up. He told me the
tranquilizers along with his stungun were in a shoebox under the sofa.
So I stood there waiting for him at the
front of the airport, teasing the automatic doors by waving my hand
under its sensor, when I begin to feel like a bit of a plonker when I
realise I'm in a very risky position here, standing in front of an
airport as I am (albeit not a big deal important one) with a
concealed stungun and a syringe fulla tranquilizer...they'll take any
opportunity to bag a 'terrorist security risk' this security
lot...they're such a rare pedestrian species these 'terrorist
security risks', bagging one'd be like having the Chupacabra's head
on yer wall...
But Party Time arrived on time and
clear as a bell...which pleased and relieved me greatly. The only
loaded he was was money loaded. It were also a relief he'd
the dregs of a London twang which made him easier to understand.
From his back pocket he pulled a roll
of notes and handed it to me.
- Here some money. We go fax yer car.
Then you drive me a couple places.
- That's the badger! I can get my wheels
back again. No sweat Party Time. I'll drive you wherever you wanna
go!
On our way back to mine we walked
instead of getting the bus so's to catch up in private and not worry
about a load of flapping ears taking all in. Party Time told me he'd
got all the money he had, 5 grand in all, running methamphetamine for
a Mr Big Time by the name of Leno. I can never remember the name of
the area in London these people (mostly Filipinos) operate out of. Or maybe its
that Party Time strategically leaves that bit out? but Leno, he told
me, used to work for some Middle Eastern intelligence agency before
he went to London and is very smart. And now he were making loads slinging mostly
amphetamine, and being well in with the Met, providing them fall
guys, small time hustlers with too much product on their hands – then the cops say they seized x-£'s worth of street drugs...a triumph of the
community, and Leno goes about his (bigger) business...it was a move
like this Leno tried to pull on Party Time which involved
doppelgangers among other things, according to him, (Party Time).
- But ah war too smart for him. Evaded
him and the law jast in tam...Thah had anatha Patty Tam thah was
slanging loads an war been a good dealer for 'em...so thah war gonna put me an thah frame and say he
was me! Leno had has boys fallow me everywhere. Had a boy stand naxt
tah me in Toxteth sayin, 'Yuh, I'm standing by him nah, wot yah want
me tah do 'en?' But this Patty Tam (prodding his chest with his finger) too smart...plus I look nothing
like that other Patty Tam...
Still, it were a riveting story all the
same, but some of the stuff he were coming off with on that dander
home were suspect, suspect at the very least: the most mendacious
load of baloney involving the Filipinos (or Filli's, as he calls em)
getting loaded on methamphetamine and being able to communicate
telepathically...and their kids, he said, this is how they communicate
generally anyway.
- Like wan tam Silvi's (his woman) kid
come in our room, after first night of me maikin sam dough far Leno,
and the kid say: 'It in his shoe' which's war I had mah cash. I told
Silvi bout this. She say: 'He said “Let's go to school,” not,
“It's in yer shoe!!”
- Well wouldn't that be more like the
thing, Party Time? I think all that Crystal Methamphetamine has
probably made you paranoid. - I said, irked & baffled.
I'm not surprised he's paranoid. For sure you took into account the flying flag festival of Taytonia in the City Airport car park, flapping like a 12th of July left out in the rain since 1690. Welcome back Party Time and happy new year to you both.
