I Am Clean

The reason for a weeks silence?  I found out what the scraping noise was…It was a family of the infected almost folded into a cupboard, it was grotesque, it was horrific.

I grabbed my bag and ran was I heard them squirm out and bang onto the floor.  It wasn’t until I was a few miles away and safely in a tree with my portable platform, that I began to think about how on earth they ended up they way they had, and how these infected bodies had survived…It certainly explains why there wasn’t much in the area…

My hand is hurting once again.  The skin is greying.  I wonder if I can find a doctor…

Well I’ve been down in the valley the past day or so.  I’ve found some slightly rotten veg in a farm to eat.  when I got back there was a strange scraping coming from upstairs, but I can’t find anything.,..

After a night of sleeping here, I might stay a couple of days.  There’s running water (albeit a bit smelly), some tinned food in the cupboards, much better than eating tree…

I’ve been round the area, and can’t find anything to suggest why there’s no wildlife in the area.  There’s a well that I haven’t explored just yet…

The bed was comfy last night.  Not like being slung up in a knobbly, cold tree…

Well I’m there!  It took a fair bit longer than  thought, I had to travel up the valley a bit to cross the river, then couldn’t find a decent path up the other side…

It’s scary quiet up here, no wildlife within a mile or so…Whoever was here does have a generator though, so I can charge up iPad and phones…

I think I’ll take a look around.

I can see a house, probably a few hours walk away, over the other side of the valley.  I wonder if it’s got a generator my my iPad…

Right, better post this before this phone really runs out of juice!

I’m lonely…Can you tell?

This is the last of old phones.  I hope I find a generator for the iPad soon…

I’m surprised the mobile signal is still about.  I wonder if it’s being provided by another country now?

I’ve already used up two of those phones…

I’ve stopped for a nibble on this oaky tree, are acorns ok to eat?

The stub where my finger was burns.  It seems to in the night.  I guess it might just be the cold…

It’s been too long.  I can’t remember what has happened in that time.  All I can tell you is that I couldn’t get any power to charge this battered iPad.  I’ve got some old phones with a bit of charge in each.  It’ll do for a while.

I’ve been sleeping in trees, I’ve got like a portable platform that I fold and strap to my back.  I’ve been eating bits of tree, my beer belly is now long gone.  I’m constantly tired.

I’ve been walking back into Wales.  I think.  I’ve lost a finger, about a week ago, or maybe two…Time is odd, I’m awake most of the time, looking forwards and backwards.  Currently sitting up in a tree in my platform.  It’s cold, and very dark already.

I’m worried.  Where are the others?  Tom, Leo, Jim, you still there?

Have I been infected?
