7. Wan sound an wan smell in yer MC's worst nightmare.

Ah hink she's lived it, no jist dreamed it. The sound o a jakey shoutin pure radge, the reek o booze, fags an blude.
They are the hings as haunt her, she associates they an the song '18 and Life' wi the moment her life went tae utter shite.

12. Material possessions

Tae Keri, the car isnae a possession, it's a pairt o Janis Joplin's spirit an it his a need tae drive.
Syne we're here, the car boot is, a bitty surprisinly, fu o Janis's stuff. Maistly claes, bit there's a mysterious medicine box in there an aw..

In #English Keri is saying:
I haven't seen my mum for years, she doesn't talk to me anymore. My Aunt was the person I kept in touch with.
Why? I'm a bit of a mess is why, but she's a bit dishonest too. We fell out after what happened to Ricky. She blamed me.
My Dad passed away a few years ago. He was no better than my ex, just ahead ov him. He drank himself to death.

The radio is ay oan in the Car, apart frae when the lassies are sleepin or Ami is phonin intae the Rock Radio station.
Maistly it's Rock or metal playin, bit also a wee bitty jazz. A load o it is 90's music, but also loads o o 60's Rock, especially Janis.
The lassies banter a fair amount, but the ither sound is the Polis ahint them.
