So I recently wrote this spoken word piece - just to sort of practice my writing in what I'd describe as my 'natural' voice. Or at least my attempt at it.
So here it is in written form just in case, I dunno, you wanna closer look.

Lovely Lovely West Lothian.
West Lothian is the place I grew up.
A fairly unremarkable splatter of council estates, new build schemes, green belt villages, pound store high-streets, super markets and shopping centers. When I meet someone that hasn't heard of our post industrial retail paradise I mention four things:
Livingston Skate Park
Livingston 'Centre' - which is the retail equivalent of Frankenstein's monster
'Jewel of the Nation the Planet the Universe' Susan Boyle
Or this Frankie Boyle joke (skip to 22s)
