Oh Crap

Well here's me thinking I won't get a job and I can sit spare no chance so it's a trip to Glasgow followed by a trip to Newcastle then back to Edinburgh oh well I get to see plenty countryside and my gaffer was hiding on the train to Glasgow for a unannounced assessment on me as well so I was surprised to see him on arrival there as he had also assessed me from Newcastle last night driving my HST train back to Edinburgh but on that occasion he was sitting next to me to watch my skills up close but passed both perfectly so we were having a laugh and chinwag at Glasgow and were reminiscing about some Glasgow stories and accents and the story I was telling him about when I was still a trainee driver back in 1990 and we had shunted our cement train into the sidings at Viewpark in Uddingston and I was making my way up to the high street in Uddingston to get some food as a 24 year old lad back then I was still rather naive about Glasgow slang so I remember this to this day when walking up to the high street a couple of girls around twenty years old were standing with one girl drinking a bottle of Vimto and as I walked past that girl she had Red hair she said do you want a Swally of my Ginger I scurried by saying no thanks and when I got back to my train I said to my minder driver what the girl said I told him that this brazen red head had asked me to perform a sex act on her telling him what she had in her hand and what she said my driver back then laughed and told It was Glasgow slang for juice and she meant it was to have drink of her juice well I was relieved after that but my gaffer had a laugh about it when I was telling him the story so it's funny how things like that stick in your memory anyhow this blip is of a drivers diagram showing me my job for the day any queries about what it all means will be answered no problems at all
