Abstract
Pup had run away, left home and hopped the train to the city when he was 16, because, despite what the state schools in Western Sydney tried to tell him, he didn't fit. He wasn't going to go from voc. ed. to dole queue and a stolen Commodore. He had the smarts to make himself a softer piece of rough trade. But five years later he was getting older and had to do a lot more to earn a dollar than when he was fresh in the city. Which was why, that Sunday, he was at Newtown Police Station with its usual 24-hour-a-day bedlam.
