Day 7477

Someone pointed out that we don't have 4J's photo on file, so I've had to go and take his picture. He posed with a pencil as if it was a microphone. That'll go down well at the inspection.

Day 7476

Well at least 4J isn't shouting - now he's singing! Something about 'body hair'. I think someone is going stir-crazy.

Day 7475

We're washing out some of the cells today in readiness for the inspection. Oh, and 4J has been shouting non-stop since yesterday. Seriously, if he doesn't stop soon, I'm going to take this bucket...

Day 7474

Great. 4J has taken to shouting 'is anybody there?' I've already told him he's the only one, but still he insists on shouting. I'm going to have a word.

Day 7473

We got the final date through for inspection today - middle of next month. Not long really. We better get those holes plugged and spruce the place up a bit. Let's just hope the prisoners behave themselves. Still, if it's only 4J it should be a breeze.

Day 7472

I was asked to fit a light in 4J today. He was asking about other inmates and I told him he was the only one. I gave him the old 'smile and a wink' that I'm so well known for round here. That always makes people feel better.

Day 7471

Seriously, what is that smell?!

Day 7470

4J's very chirpy this morning. A little 'woo-hoo' first thing and he's been smiling away all day. He should try filling holes in walls with filler, that would wipe the smile right off his face.

Day 7469

We're gradually filling in all these holes in the cell walls. It's not like they're big, no-one could escape or anything. Still, we've got an inspection next month, so better show willing.

Day 7468

Found out what 4J is in for. Interesting.

Day 7467

The wall in cell 4J checked out, so we moved 4K back from whence he came, which he didn't look too happy about. Surely one cell is very much like another. Anyway, fed him, which he was grateful for. Have a feeling that's what I was forgetting to do - oops!

Day 7466

Bought a load of decorators' filler today to start plugging those holes. Must remember to fill out an expenses form to get reimbursed this time. I'm not having that Mars bar fiasco again.

Day 7465

Cleaning out 4T we found some holes in the walls. Hope they aren't in all the cells.

Day 7464

Told 4K that he was the last one here, which he didn't look too happy about. Just as well from my point of view, I'd be out of a job otherwise. Sure I've forgotten something again today. Must be getting old.

Day 7463

The prisoner in 4T has been released, so that just leaves 4J. Or 4K as he is now. We're just letting the wall set properly before we move him back. There's that funny, musty smell again today, but mixed with a sweet odour. Weird.

Day 7462

Blessed builders! Finally finished at lunchtime today (how long does it take to rebuild a wall?!) and then one of them dropped his tools everywhere. Took us an hour just to find all his nails. Can't be too careful with these prisoners. Anyway, job's done. I can't help feeling I've forgotten something.

Day 7461

The builders are here rebuilding the wall in 4J. The more I think about it, the more surprised I am that guy is still here. I must look up what he's in for.

Day 7460

The prisoner in 4J called me in and he's got most of one wall missing! He said something about a breeze but I was off to the office. We've moved him to 4K and got the builders coming in tomorrow. I wonder why he didn't try and escape?

Day 7459

Is it me or can I smell elephant round here?

Day 7405

The hairy prisoner in 4J has been eyeing the bullet proof window most of today. He better not be thinking of an escape - I'm too close to retirement to be dealing with that sort of paperwork.

Can't find my pencil.
