Tourist Trap

On the way home last night I walked past the local homeless shelter where I noticed a group of men and women shouting at each other. Two men and two women all were looking worse for wear, stumbling about and slurring their words whilst being rather aggressive. I felt sorry for two tourists as they passed by. Understandably they looked concerned for their safety. Fortunately they walked by unscathed from the walking dead.

Further down the road and I saw a tramp fast asleep with a bottle of Jacques cider in his hand. Maybe it was a student fallen on hard times. All of these situations made me wonder why do people do this to themselves? Is there no other path they could take than drowning themselves in booze?

On a more positive note I have reached 1000 views of my blog. Wow thanks everyone!

It would still be great to get some comments from my readers. Wherever you are, come and say hi.
