solitary position. I ask Darren about him.

Tragic,' he says. 'Alistair is one of your lot - public school, followed by university, where he graduated as a heroin addict. If he doesn't kick the habit, he'll be in prison for the rest of his life.'

'How can that be possible?' I ask.

'Simple. He regularly gets caught injecting himself, and always ends up with a few more months being added to his sentence. In fact, even on the day he was sent down, he was found with a needle in his arm. Somehow, and it must have been before the judge passed sentence or soon after he was taken down, he managed to stuff a needle covered in cellophane, a plunger and ten grams of heroin wrapped in a condom up his backside. He then took a laxative so that he could empty his bowels as soon as he arrived at Belmarsh, Once they'd banged him up that evening - and don't forget there's a lavatory in every cell - he injected himself with heroin and passed out. At the nine o'clock flap check the night officer found him lying on the floor with a needle

stuck in his arm and several grams of heroin sprinkled on the floor beside him. He must be one of the few prisoners who has managed to have time added to his sentence before breakfast the following morning.'

I look at the tragic, hunched-up figure and wonder if prison is the right answer.

Supper. I can't remember what I eat, but I do recall

finding two extra cartons of milk on my window sill. Sergio is exercising his authority as the new No. 1 on the hotplate.
