The weekly haiku

Pale sky, empty streets;
Neither sleeping nor waking,
The city at dawn.


Yep, it was another late one tonight. I met a nice young Russian chap and stayed out all night drinking with him until the football came on. Although I have been backing Spain since a few days into the tournament, I did feel for my companion's pain.

Walking home at 5am, as the sky unfades to grey, is quite a magical experience.
