Extracts from my diary

8:34pm Shanghaiist BBQ
This place is really crowded, I keep knocking everyone over with my backpack, think I’ll just have one drink and go home

8:40pm Vedas
Oh look, an Indian restaurant, I’ll just pop in here and have a curry and a light ale, then go home

9:30pm Vedas
This couple sat next to me are very nice, they’re here on holiday, I’ll give them a few tips on places to visit then go home.

11:04pm People’s 6
It’s a shame not to show them this nice bar that’s close to the restaurant, I don’t have to drink or anything. Well maybe I’ll have one. Then go home.

12:07am Abbey Road
Well this bar is just down the road and it has a terrace- I’ll have a glass of Porter in this nice weather with this nice couple then go home.

1:15am Abbey Road
I’m definitely not going to watch the European Cup Final. It’s on way too late. Definitely not.

2:00am O’Malleys
I’ll just watch the first 10 minutes of the match to get a feel for the atomsphere then go home.

2:47am O’Malleys
Lots of Chinese lads are really into Man United aren’t they? Going home soon.

3:30am O’Malleys
This game is great, can’t believe Chelsea just got an equaliser- should be a good second half. I’ll watch a bit of that then go home.

3:37am O’Malleys
Jagermeister on a school night? This isn’t going to end well.

4:10am O’Malleys
Extra time, blimey. Maybe I should switch to Coke. or go home.

4:13am O’Malleys
Still extra time, it’s going to be a nail-biting penalty shoot out!

Wait a minute, I’ve just realised that I don’t care who wins.
I’m going home.
