8.15am Groundhog Day (The O'leer Cut)

Do a bit of people watching as I eat my breakfast. There is a café across the road where some rough looking old dudes sit cackling and play cards every day and occasionally send some younger boys over to the people sitting here to offer to polish their shoes. I’ve been wearing flipflops so have managed to avoid them!! I’ve been leaving orange laptop in a prominent position on the edge of the terrace but still no-one has stolen it- damn you it’s a perfectly good laptop (that weighs more than a small car!!) This street is really busy as there are some big offices nearby and loads of people are getting dropped off- I’ve noticed they don’t really kiss each other goodbye but a playful slap on the arm seems to serve the same purpose!! A punch in the face is probably the same a really good snog...maybe...
