— Small room with chairs
People are sitting in a few rows of plastic chairs. A man is standing to talk.
Man 1 (WH): Alcohol has, uh, has ruined my life. Doctor reckons that I’m never going to be a hundred percent. I just wish I’d come here sooner because you have helped me come to terms with what I am, and what I can – what I will be.
He sits and Roly stands.
Roly (SM): My name is Roly. I’m an alcoholic, this is my first time here and I have gotta tell you, I am inspired by the courage and bravery of those around me. I drink about a bottle and a half of Scotch a day –
Man 2 (FG): Oh, that’s disgusting.
Woman (RH): Get out.
Man 1: You pisshead.
