about

"Fifty fucking years," she grumbled, tugging at her surgical stockings as she sat on the bench, raising her eyes to the sky above the Thames, "fifty fucking years ago, it was."
A young boy sat next to her, putting the remainder of a jam sandwich into his mouth.
"Are you listening to me, you dozy pillock?"
He nodded, staring intently at her gnarled face, hairy moles and liver spots, and those unpleasantly thick black hairs under her chin. She lifted her stick and pointed up to the moon. It was a dull and grey afternoon, but it was obviously sunny somewhere as the crescent shone like neon.
"Fifty fucking years ago they put a man up there, see?" She continued, "And now look at us, breaking the fucking law being on the same bench we are, just because the stupid fuckers can't cure a cold."
"It's more than a cold, grandma, it's..."
"It's a fucking virus," the old lady interrupted, "and what do you think a cold is? It's a fucking virus."
The young boy smiled as a squirrel sat at his feet, looking upward, as if it understood what delights lay in the unopened packet of crisps sticking out from his coat pocket.
"Don't feed that fucking thing, boy," she snarled, blocking his hand as he reached for them, "rats with fluffy tails, that's all them dirty little fuckers are. Vermin."
The boy placed his hands back on his knees and looked down at the squirrel.
"Sorry," he muttered, "you'd best go now."
"Yeah. Go on, fuck off! Fifty fucking years. One small step for man, my arse."
