My brain now has mastered it, and is using his powers to insult people without them understanding a single word of what he's saying.
I.E. Me.

I really wouldn't mind that much. But I'm quite worried because I have no idea how he managed to get an internet connection inside my head.

It is about the two main characters Davie and Alec. Davie is Alec’s dad and they live in a Glasgow tenement in early nineteen-sixties. The story continues through that decade and shows how Davie and Alec cope with the death of their wife/mum at the beginning of the play. Unfortunately for Davie and Alec not very well. Davie goes from job to job until he is unemployed and turns to gambling and drinking to escape from reality. Although there is hope for Alec, who passes a test and gets his education at a better school.
There are two other characters in the play, Billy who is Davie’s brother and Ian who is Alec’s cousin. I believe that the writer Alan Spence only enters these characters into the story to contrast with Davie and Alec.
Billy and Davie are in the same boat at the beginning of the play. It seems they are both single parents with a child the same age to bring up and both have a trade of work that is under threat. The difference is that when they are both unemployed, Billy and Ian leave Glasgow for Aberdeen and set up their own painting company, while in contrast to Davie and Alec they stay in Glasgow and Davie drinks all their money away. While Billy and Ian are making something of their life’s, Davie is doing nothing and at the same time is holding back Alec: -
“Yer Uncle Billy had the right idea. Took his redundancy
money an moved tae Aberdeen. Doin all right”.
This shows tragedy because Davie could have easily have did what Billy has done and made something with his life but instead he will stay in Glasgow all his life without a permanent job and any money he does earn he will either drink it or gamble it. This is effective because it shows two roads in which Davie could have gone. He could have went the road to a eventful future with a job he could hold down and have a decent income or the road to a disastrous future where he will never get a job and will die a lonely old drunk
There is also tragedy in that Davie is halting Alec’s future as well as his own. When Alec passes his test he receives bursary money to aid his future education, but Davie takes the money to pay the electricity bill and ends up spending it down the pub and on gambling: -
“Did you gamble wi that bursary money?
Just a coupla quid.”
