After an uneventful, if slightly odorous, bus journey, Sparks finished up outside his flat. He was pleased to see that his key fitted and somewhat surprised to see that the mail on the doormat was pretty much near identical to the mail on his own doormat; and that this other Sparks was level-pegging with him in the red bill stakes.

Sparks rang the doorbell. There was no answer. He allowed a minute or three for hangovers or mental confusion, and rang again. After a similar non-answer, Sparks let himself in to the flat. It was, again, alarmingly like his own flat, so much so that there was even the same crumpled empty beer can acting as a really inept bookmark in the same paperback he had been reading for the last six months but (he checked) had never been able to get past the part where the two men who both owned a second hand record shop had a fight in the road over the secretary.

Sparks creaked open his bedroom door, as he was beginning to think of it, and was pleased to see that his bed was rumpled and empty (but less pleased to see that the Spider-Man sheets and the Incredible Hulk pillow case were exactly as faded as his own). He sat down by the bed. A thought had occurred to him.

Oh bugger, was the thought, I’ve come back to my own…

The thought was interrupted by the huge dull thud of something huge and dull thudding into the back of Sparks’ skull. For the second time in, what?, half an hour – And, while we’re at it, Sparks thought, about the fifth time this year, Sparks lost consciousness.
