I don't know whether or not you are still around, but summer 2003 was much, much better.
You were so right on the notices in the stairs, a new one went up in mine yesterday! Piss, used condoms and evidence of drug-taking...
Although you do say 'stangers', maybe you mean Tony Stanger who used to play rugby union for Scotland, or perhaps a Scottish cricketer, Ian Stanger.

hey i luv ur poem! i can't really write haiku's and i really admire those that can!

i'm actually from glasgow, so i see the similarities - only difference between glasgow and edinburgh is that edinburgh has a castle, so more drunk tourists and glasgow is bigger, so more buses and trains to NOT arrive! lol where bouts in edeinburgh u live? email me @ butterflytears87@aol.com, cus i dnt thnk thats what these reviews should be used for lol. xBTx

Hey, this is great - a mixture of haiku goodness and realist reflection. I love it, especially the part about the bus; I can definitely commiserate. >_

I normally don't like series of haikus, because it takes away from the simplicity of the art form, but in this case they're each of a separate subject, contributing to the whole, which I think is nicely done.

I enjoy the way that the ideas of the haikus are said through description and through naturally flowing ideas. Keep up the good work.

Very nice, I love poems that have a place to them. this is well done and wonderfully written.

Hehe. :) Good job. Most people don't know how hard it is to write a haiku that makes sense, much less a decent one. Your haiku tells a story, which is even better!

I like this and the format that it is written in. Nice job!

I love it. it takes talent to write something like this and make it work. The images are great, and I feel like I'm there with you. Such portraying a well written poem. nicely done.

Awesome! Great idea! Some of the syllables are one off though- recheck lines six (gets me quite drenched) maybe, gets me really drenched. Also, (I almost trip over) Maybe I almost trip on. Very original. We really like it.
