Request from Ben

Ben has called from the "block".

They have taken his word processor away, which means he cannot type his Ph.D. work and do blog posts (don't worry, I have a few to be getting on with!). Ben's handwriting is appalling.

Ben asks if anyone has an old typewriter kicking around?  You know - old relics with ribbons?  Typewriters are on the "approved" list in prison, and he is therefore allowed to have one.

Please e-mail on the blog contact if you have one and we will work out how to get it into him.

Thanks, Ed.
