Laying in bed and all I can hear is moaning, gasping, and heavy footfalls. Are we being surrounded? Don and Andy are looking out, but without street lights we can’t see much and we don’t want to use torches incase it draws attention to ourselves, we still don’t know how intelligent these things are.

Six hours is not enough - Henry Fable
June 4th, 2011 by Henry Fable at 12:21 pmSix hours sleep is just not enough! I’ve no idea how I used to get by on three! But I’m up and ready to go…Go and do what though….?
Initially there was panic, the came excitement. But now we’re just bored…
We’re getting fed up with our own company and the space is feeling very limiting.
Cup of tea I think. Mmmmmm, powered milk………
YUK!
Still nothing - Henry Fable
June 4th, 2011 by Henry Fable at 6:18 amBugger all happening last night.
We’ve decided to swap the shifts around a bit, so I’m not on tonight, I’ll be watching tomorrow day. Time for sleep and then up for the afternoon, which will be a bit like being a student again only with less booze…
Running low - Henry Fable
June 3rd, 2011 by Henry Fable at 7:10 pmOur supplies aren’t looking good…
I think we’re good for a few more days, but then we’re going to need to go looking for food. I didn’t think we’d get through so much, I guess we’re just used to having the same old portions as we always used to. Read the rest of this entry »
Deposit - Leopold Whitehead
June 3rd, 2011 by Leopold Whitehead at 12:20 pmI’ve been reading Henry’s posts. Sounds pretty shitty up your way – I think we’re a day or so behind.
It’s been a busy couple of days for us too. The street is half empty at the moment – as half the people have packed up and left. Next door said they were going to get the Eurostar and camp out in France until all this blows over. They set off yesterday and promised they’d drop me an email when they arrived. I’m still waiting for it.
We’re staying here. The train’s aren’t running up our way – so there’s no guarantee they’ll be running in Dover, or even London for that matter, and with the Garages shut we don’t have enough petrol to make a round trip of it. Who’s to say its any better there?
A tightly wound spring - Henry Fable
June 3rd, 2011 by Henry Fable at 10:46 amRemember that attack at the front door the other day? The body has been lying in the basement courtyard since then and it’s turned pretty fuzzy. The body has moved a bit, it’s joints bent at odd angles, you could almost imaging all of the limbs just springing back into position and propelling the body across the courtyard.
Nothing to see - Henry Fable
June 3rd, 2011 by Henry Fable at 3:03 amThe one thing about night time watching is there isn’t a lot to see. The street lamps aren’t on and there are no cars. Infected folk don’t glow or anything, so I’m having to listen for movements, which isn’t difficult as they all seem to lumber about…
Night watching - Henry Fable
June 2nd, 2011 by Henry Fable at 11:15 pmThe girl is still in the garden, her skin torn like her clothes. One of her parents, too disfigured to distinguish which, walked straight past her earlier, making their way down the road.
There was a small gather round the back in the car park, but they quickly went after a rabbit. I wonder if this infection can spread to rabbits…
Frightened Fran - Henry Fable
June 2nd, 2011 by Henry Fable at 6:54 pmAfter last night, my sleep was broken with images of what I witnessed. Beth, Fran, and Don have seen infected people today.
Fran is traumatised, she saw the family across the road stumbling about inside the house. She knew them, she had looked after the little girl when the parents had gone away. The little girl was stumbling around the garden, almost as if to show people what had happened.
Beth is looking after Fran just now, and George is keeping watch. I’ll take over at about 8ish for the night watch.
