Remember this night so well on TFI Friday. It had been a stressful week for me I was 16 and I had failed an aptitude test to get a good job as an apprentice. My Dad stepped in and spoke with my boss letting him know i'd be alright. I got the news midweek the gaffer was taking me on, I've now made a good life for my family. But getting back to this night there was always 2 shows on TFI Friday the 6pm show and the uncut one at 10:30. Well yours truly sat minding his own business watching the late one when my Old Man came in and said you watch yourself out there at night i've just seen 2 boys kicking fuck out a wee guy lying on the ground, he told them to stop it and the first one to turn up with any cheek just got fucked, and his mate ran off. It was never the worst neighbourhood to grow up in but there's always danger. Loads more men will be closer to their Dads than I am in fact we aren't great frends but I will always appreciate the start and the advice I got.
