Should all acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind
Should all acquaintance be forgot, and the days of auld lang syne.
2x For auld lang syne, my dear, for auld lang syne
we'll take a cup of kindness yetfor the sake of auld lang syne.
Let's have a drink or maybe two or maybe three or four
or five or six or seven or eightor maybe even more.
For auld lang syne, my dear, for auld lang syne
we'll take a cup of kindness yet for the sake of auld lang syne.
When it gets to closing time and if you still want more
I know a pub in Inverness that never shuts its door.
2x For auld lang syne, my dear, for auld lang syne
we'll take a cup of kindness yet for the sake of auld lang syne.
I'm too drunk to blog tonight...Happy New Year and Auld Lang Syne...:)
Who Is The Black Chinaman?
- Nick
- Kuala Belait, Brunei
- Saving someone's life is like falling in love. The best drug in the world. For days, sometimes weeks afterwards, you walk the streets, making infinite whatever you see. Once, for a few weeks, I couldn't feel the earth - everything I touched became lighter. Horns played in my shoes. Flowers fell from my pockets. You wonder if you've become immortal, as if you've saved your own life as well. God has passed through you. Why deny it, that for a moment there - why deny that for a moment there, God was you? I realised that my training was useful in less than ten percent of the calls, and saving lives was rarer than that. After a while, I grew to understand that my role was less about saving lives than about bearing witness. I was a grief mop. It was enough that I simply turned up. Living and working back in Brunei, after a 14 year absence... Also known as: Brunei, NASA, Bruise-Eye, Bru, Cheesecake, Nick, BruNick, BruMedNick, Two Step etc etc etc
