from The Van: A Novel (The Barrytown Trilogy) by Roddy Doyle:
He came off the Green, crossed the road. The street light here was broken again. The glass was on the path. It was always this one they smashed, only this one.
It was funny; he’d been really grateful when young Jimmy had given him the fiver, delighted, and at the same time, or just after, he’d wanted to go after him and thump the living shite out of him and throw the poxy fiver back in his face, the nerve of him; who did he think he was, dishing out fivers like Bob fuckin’ Geldof.
