2908 - Dratislava!

Last day of Central Europe holiday
Up at 4:20 am, oh my God
Caught the X-13 bus at 5:03
Or thereabouts to Bratislava's good
Main station - not! Why? My train was delayed
By - wait for it - 100 minutes! Shit!
Thank God I got up early. If I had
Gambled on a later one I'd have missed
My flight, quite likely. Just about made it
As it was. Got soaked as I made my way
From Deansgate to my flat. It felt quite odd
Being back here, not in a Slavic state
Or a Magyar one. Europe's my mainstay
for mind-expanding trips - it's mental food
