The wedding was over and the couple were pished. Not their wedding but the sober cousin promised he would take the baby home. He wheeled the pram across the cobblestones for a hundred metres to the hotel room and proceeded to wheel each step with the pram up gradually until they reached the landing, pushing the pram into the room and while the cousin and her partner gently sit on the couch and gently fall to sleep. Passed and blackout drunk. The cousin puts the baby into the cot and it goes to sleep, the picture resembles a crack den.
