Rather than go home now, I continued up another street totally unplanned, this street was much quieter and not so well lit up although it was terraced houses on either side with no dark recesses for the potential of any lurkers.

Because of the high walls, I was much more conscious of the loud echo from my heels but this just added to the excitement of being dressed the way I was.

I walked the whole length of this street like this, always looking back over my shoulder to make sure no one had suddenly appeared.

I had to now take a right to get back onto the right street to go home and further down the end of this road were two guys walking away from me, both with baggage – by the looks of things probably heading for the bus or train station.
