Day 550

Took a stroll around the courtyard today. Saw Derek, looking particularly smug, who proceeded to give me back all the pencils I had given him, saying they were no long required. Not sure what he meant by that.

Day 549

I decided I would write a heartfelt letter to my lady friend. She seems so genuine and nice. I think I can trust her, I'm going to tell her everything.

Day 548

A guard mentioned (apparently by accident) that I was put in solitary because they wanted to "hide me" from an inspection. I thought it was because I had done something wrong. I think I was more surprised to learn that solitary is the only place that never gets inspected. Health and Safety is such a silly rule.

Day 547

It should have been my anniversary today.

Day 546

A new guard bought my lunch today. Introduced himself as Simon. Apparently came from some other distant prison, but I hadn't heard of it before. Not sure I like him.

Day 545

Derek caught me off guard in the courtyard today. Simply said "Good Morning". For some odd reason it really put the rattles up me. I don't like him anymore.

Day 544

Managed to find a secure place to hide the letter. Derek doesn't know my cell as well as I do. Felt better for doing that.
