A group of ravers were given a bit of a shock at a party yesterday morning when an unsuspecting member of their group accidentally opened the curtains – letting in the dawn light, and with it, a fat dose of reality.
Robert Brown, the party host, had hoped to keep sessioning, unaware of the time of night or day, until at least tomorrow evening by keeping the world at bay by having the curtains firmly shut.
“It was going great, everyone was still bouncing off the walls and having great fun, listening to music and racking out lines,” explained Robert, “but suddenly a chink of light burst into the room, letting in the grim morning air and bursting the bubble we’d created.”
“Everyone in the room felt it, the onrushing traffic of their normal, responsible lives that had been held at bay for a brief respite by the closed curtains,” he continued. “All that had changed once the light of the day came seeping in.”
Robert claims that thankfully the shock didn’t last long as everyone soon realised that it was only Saturday and, though it was morning, the party didn’t have to end.
“I got a bit of a shock but sure it’s only Saturday so I’m not working til Monday and to be fair it’s a lovely day. We’re taking the party out onto the balcony now in the gentle morning sun, I might drop another pill now.”
