He struggles at first but then he stops and stands there staring at me. I try to apologise, "I'm sorry I didn't know this was yours" I hold up the handle tool, the black fabric flapping down. "I will put it back" He stands watching me, Its takes me a few attempts before the handle tool is deposited back in the shrine. I turn to the man, "I really am sorry" I'm about to hug him again but he steps back avoiding contact. Now look Miss, you can't go about damaging park property, and you can't stay here, the park gets locked at night. Now I suggest you go home . . . I smile, "Yes home . . . oh but . . . but I don't . . . how do I tell him I haven't been able to go back for a while now ever since that fateful day. "Homeless then?" He stands a little way off juggling the large key in his hand, "Look Miss if you really have nowhere to go you should go to the refuge, Its down main street . . " He waves vaguely to the right, "Now be off with you before you lose me my job" I start off towards the gate I turn back he looks away, "Go to the refuge . . ."

As I pass through the gate I take one more quick look at the Park Warden, I feel guilty when I see he is cleaning the rubbish that spilled out when I had tugged the handle tool free. Its hard to see his face in the dim light but sharp ears pick up more 'uck' words, I dismiss the urge to go back and ask what a main street is, instead turning to pass through the gate and out along a short tree lined alley to where light seems to be winning the war against the dark . . . I stand stunned what an amazing sight this main street is for it is full of buildings and as I look there is so much to see I barely know where to start
