“I had to do things to myself on the page that had been done to me in real life. I had to try and drown myself in the bath. You have to do that.

It's telling people what happened.” PeopleShouldTryingI CanRealDoneHappenedReaderPagesReal LifeImpulseRescueShould ISparesBaths Author:Damian Barr
“Scotland has always been independent. We have our own legal system, our own culture; I don't see the issue. We are different and I think we should celebrate those differences within the union. I can see what would be lost, but don't necessarily see what would be gained by breaking away. What does upset me is that I can't vote in Scotland.” ThinkingShouldDoeI CanDifferentWould BeCultureLostDifferencesIssuesVoteIndependentUnionsCelebrateUpsetScotlandLegal SystemBreaking Away Author:Damian Barr
