Wot no Saturday mornings

This weekend I was determined to get to the beach and catch some sun. As per usual I headed into town on Friday night to ensure that the standards of numerous local bars wasn't slipping (well someone has to). Also, as per usual, I ended up at Immigrants cafe - where Shizuka works until about 4 am. I end up here partly because I want to see her, partly because the last train is 23.37, partly because the next train is 5.30am and partly because I'm a bit worse for wear after my rounds.
Problem is that when you finish work/drinking at 4 am and actually get to bed about 5 am, you are not really inclined to jump out of bed at the crack of dawn to go and spend time at the beach - mainly because dawn was an hour before you got to bed. So unfortunately, as per usual, all of Saturday morning is spent trying to catch up sleep - or recover from a hangover. When we did finally rise it was only 3 hours before Shizuka had to start work again. So the beach would have to wait until Sunday.
