What was hilarious was after spending most of my early teens borrowing money off my friends to get into clubs, now they just let you in for nothing.
And I had the money.
I go, let me come in.
No, I've got money now.
Money's no good here, chap.
Get inside.
Have a pint.
I'm only 16.
Have two pints.
It was ridiculous.
But I loved it.
And I loved being this 16-year-old kid.
Did you drink too much?
Did you smoke too much?
Did you try drugs?
Never smoked.
Because I lived in a house where it was all just smoke.
Because everybody just smoked in our house.
And I could do without the smoking.
Drinking, though, was different because I'd had a bit of drinking because we used to have, you've never had this, but if you're Jamaican, if you're a kid, you will have this.
