Right.
Oh, Jean, maybe we could
meet at lunch, have a wee...
- See you, Harry.
- ...celebration.
- Morning, girls.
- Jean.
I've got some great news.
Straight through
to the Scottish Colourists.
I'm sure your brother's lovely.
I'm just not up for small talk.
He's not very chatty either.
I've had a crap day and all I want
is a drink and a laugh.
Yeah, and a drink and a laugh
is all it is.
Now, you can talk or not.
He's not gonna be listening.
He's just gonna be
staring at your tits.
I'm not staying long.
One drink then I'm off.
Well, don't tell me.
Tell your sister.
She wants you to meet her pal.
Another nutcase
from the nurses' home?
- This one's different apparently.
- Different? How?
Well, she's good-looking.
She stays out in Morningside.
She's English.
English?
That's for you.
You celebrating something?
The thing with tequila, it's not what
you forget, it's what you remember.
- Francine.
- No wonder you're still single.
- Fran.
- Oh, thanks. Cheers, my dears.
- You in?
- I'm in.
Good.
That's boggin'.
Right, Lizzie, up.
Tell us one of your stories.
- OK.
- Drunken storytelling?
- No one's safe.
- OK.
This is the
story of our first teacher
You remember?
Shetland made her jumpers
And the devil made her features
Threw up her hands
when our mums said our names
- I've never seen her do this ever.
- You've never seen her do this?
Embroidered all her stories
with slanderous claims
Whoa!
It's over and done with
It's over and done with
Right, I'm
getting more drinks.
It's over and done with
It's over and done with
It's over and done with
It's over and done with
- Right, you, come on.
- I'll gi' youse a story, aye.
Nice one.
This is the story of
losing my virginity
I held my breath
and the bed held a trinity
People, I'm making no claims
to no mystery
But sometimes I feel like
my sex life's all history
It's over and done with
It's over and done with
It's over and done with
It's over and done with
It's over and done with
It's over and done with
It's over and done with
It's over and done with
didn't touch our lives in any way
But...
They didn't leave the impression
that some people say
- Get over it, Liz.
- Yvonne, you get up. It's your turn.
- I can't. What am I gonna say?
- You'll be fine.
Just tell us anything.
Come on, everybody gets a turn.
This is the story
of watching a man dying
The subject's unpopular
but I don't feel like lying
When I think of it now
I acted like a sinner
I just washed my hands
and I went for my dinner
Washed my hands
and walked away.
It's over and done with
