Tonight I was walking a few yards to myhome . After I had crossed theroad from the Primrose Bar and Restaurant in Ballynahinch, Co. Down in the north ofIreland where I had been having a few pints inexcellent company , I was stopped by ayoung girl , probablyjail bait , who said " HYAL" She ran herhand down myside as I lit hercigarette . She was with another girl and a young man who said " Leave him alone." Later when I went to emptyrubbish in thebin I met the two girls walking back up thestreet . They had been unable tobuy alighter in the Enterprise, anotherbar were under age. I had two lighters in mypresent as I do not like to see asmoker stuck without alight .
