This is a very old experiment, but I've never been able to truly let it go.
A council house, a lonely kid, and a little side room used as a home office. The computer is hardly used but is always on.
Alex has never used a computer before - he's never even touched the keys of a keyboard.
There's more detail in the chaos of helloiamalex than appears at first sight. He learns what the shift key does, he learns about space, tab and the little options the word processor gives him.
If I ever write this story properly, the keyboard mashing will slowly give way to more and more insight into Alex's sadness and pain, and perhaps an unforgettable story will emerge.

just came back from the game. dan couldnt make it i dont think his girlfriend hannH IS VERY WELL. SHAME I HAVENT SEEN HIM IN AGES. Lair came and brought peanut who doesnt play but hes living in lairs car at the moment so he played. Stagger won but only by a king. i had a straight too. Willis and trace had a good game but willis spend the night teaching peanut not to shout snap everytime he had the same number as card in the flop.
Trace wore the bracelet
