Liverpool. Home of The Beatles. The Beatles Museum (yes of course there's a Beatles Museum) is literally a two minute walk from my semi-demi-luxury apartment's front door. Down in the resident's-only parking area I've noticed the numbers go from 24 to ... Read more >

So. Where are we?
We're in Camberwell. Denmark Hill. Brixton. South East London. That area. Specifically Coldharbour Lane. Brilliant name. Is there a novel somewhere in Henry Pordes second-hand bookshop ... Read more >

It starts with a scream in a dream. And then it's suddenly not a dream. It's really real and it's across the road. I get up from this new bed. Open the curtains in this new room. In this new place. In this new chapter. Spanking new. I've been off the ... Read more >

Well bugger me sideways. I don't know the How and I'm starting to be less sure about the Who, but somebody has planted a cyber-tracker in The Cloud and virtually knows my every virtual move. I'm livid.

Brilliant. Some finger-licking hackmeister infiltrated my emails and posted my encrypted message to you as a frickin blog entry. I'm never using Firewall-Free Fred's Internet Café services again. I should have flinched when I saw Nachos ... Read more >

It is with great excitement that I write to you, Ms Cress. The blogs are found.

You dream.
You hope. You pray.
You think it's over. That's it. It'll

Survival

I've been here two weeks
and two days and for some bizarre reason I'm not yet working on the
