Bill Hawkins

I am the mother. I completely understand your mums rage, its hormones and oppressive patriarchy getting the better of us. And in response to people posting on here saying this is misogynistic I disagree...I sense you love your mum and are very grateful to her not least for her providing you with fantastic material for your routine.

I miss my little Irish mum. I am old man now of 64 and mum made it to 96. And she was still fighting right up to the end. A Cork woman, with a build like Popeye. Oh she was small but hard as nails. The problem was her brothers the Creans from Kinsale taught her boxing. They were all sailors and fishermen, and they also taught her to swear like one of them. I saw her once hop about a 2 meter fence and take down a Clonmel neighbour twice her size who told her to "Feck off!" "Yer wot!" she said and that was it. Off she went like a little whirlwind. That neighbour she put on the floor with one punch and sat on top of her bashing the face in. She used to give us a good belt about the head. My dad used to run. Kind of funny seeing an English Protestant man running from a little Irish Catholic woman. Dad certainly could run fast :) But she and dad loved us all. And they loved one another deeply for over 65 years. She was the last of her family to go. One thing I can say is that the Irish have life by its tail and they will hang on to it.

My ma used to shout, “I’ll fuckin’ crucify ye”, which other people presumed was a figure of speech, not knowing that she had actually already crucified me for real. Not the full “nails hammered through the wrists” version, just the “tied hanging from the staircase by my arms” version. She properly tried to kill me on 3 different occasions.
