“I never thought I'd miss you, you smelly little bugger, but I do. I suppose you don't spend more than twenty years of your life with someone you hate. Not even if their dress sense drives you crazy. Wish you was still here, it's bloody lonely sometimes. Still at least I had you. Me and half the East End.”
