Beep. I&#8217;m sure if you hammer on the door loud enough, someone will wake up and let you in. Ah, a light has gone on, this is an ideal time to question your housemate&#8217;s parentage. He will probably still let you in if you keep banging on the door long enough.<\/p>\n<p>2:30am. Beep. What a great time to ring your best mate. How considerate of you to the rest of the household; rather than wake them all up you will go onto the front steps. Of course it is a long way to Ipswich so you will need to speak up. I&#8217;m glad that you had a good time with your friends and I hope Karen gets back together with her boy friend.<\/p>\n<p>3am. Beep. It&#8217;s much easier to walk down the middle of the road when you have had a few drinks; those wing mirrors and wheely bins do keep getting in the way. You and your mates seems to have had a great night out at the clubs but I&#8217;ll never get to know you because you don&#8217;t seem to live in this street; at least you don&#8217;t think so.<\/p>\n<p>3:30am. Beep. Hey, do you know what happened down the Centre. You must have needed to get out very quick so you borrowed a car. Yes, we can see you under that railway bridge, these thermal cameras are very good. Just sit tight &#8217;till we get a few more blokes and we will make sure you come quietly. The other guy may be out of casualty by the morning but you won&#8217;t be seeing daylight for some time. It&#8217;s a pity these helicopters are so noisy, it is hard to hear the radio.<\/p>\n<p>4am. Beep. What is that noise. It sounds like it is in the room. It can&#8217;t be the alarm, it&#8217;s much too early. Did I leave the phone off the hook? Ah! my mobile needs charging. Whether I put it on charge or throw it out of the window I will have to get up else it will keep beeping all night.<\/p>\n<p>6:30am. What&#8217;s all that noise. Oh, the radio has come on. Time to get up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2am. Beep. I&#8217;m sure if you hammer on the door loud enough, someone will wake up and let you in.
