drunk and disorderly

I can't believe the amount of drunk people that I've randomly come into contact with by just being at Chester. Terry, my friend was walking me back home last night after CU and we saw this guy who looked quite rough around the edges, and he stopped and was talking to us. I mean he was in no way threatening, but it was just that I was tired and wanted to get back home. I guessed that he was talking to us for over half an hour, offering us various illegalities, and asking whether we would join him in a smoke. I started praying about a police car coming down the road. It did, but didnt stop (maybe I should have prayed for it to stop too!) This guy was quite paranoid, and just a bit weird, he started singing and at one point he was following us home, but we said that we needed to get back and that we were tired. This is not the first time that something like this has happened in Chester, I've experienced two other separate occasions, that things like this has happened. Once there were two guys in town that were drunk, and started talking to me (btw do I have a sign on my head saying stop, talk to me?!?) and asked whether I wanted a muppet I was like, what? and he brought out of his bag, a cheap puppet toy and said would I like it, I politely declined, but his friend said that he wanted it instead, so I was relieved at that! They then went on. Also another drunk guy was scaring me, but luckily someone came out of their house, and helped me. Don't get me wrong, Chester is safe (at times) but I suppose because it's near the biggest council estate in Europe; Blacon, you're bound to get some kind of backlash from that statistic. Anyway, all is well now. Just wanted to share my ramblings with you all!
