I didn't have nice dreams last night, in fact, they were very creepy indeed. I dreamt I was standing over the dead body of Lucinca next door. The top of her head was open and a battered skull protruded through torn skin. Lying face down in a blood soaked carpet, she turned round and reached out to me. The right hand side of her face was missing, torn away, and her brain was exposed on that side. The grizzly pieces of skin on her face, neck and shoulder covered with bite marks. I took a step backward, tripped over something on the floor, and came crashing down on a coffee table. I turned to see a small girl covered from head to toe in blood. She got to her feet quite clumsily. I tried to scream, but couldn't. The girl smiled a crooked smile at me. Lucinda sneered at me, for a second I saw Connie's face and then I screamed until I woke.

Nice dream eh?

What the fuck! (no cute abbreviations here) I've been told by one of the guys in suits that I have to leave my flat, due to unforeseeable circumstances. Apparently there may very well be a real danger of the virus spreading through the building and into my flat. What's he talking about? I'm no physicist or shit but surely the virus would have to be airborne?

He was, I suppose, as pleasant as a person could be who was trying to throw someone out their house without force. He told me his name was Roger Fennel, but I'm not entirely sure I believe him. I don't know what to believe now.

I get a prickly sensation down my spine and shudder when I think about what's happened in this building.

Anyway, Mr. Fennel, he asked me not to call him Roger as it was far too familiar, then told me that I had to find somewhere else to stay as this building, including my flat, was under quarantine. That must be the new buzzword “quarantine”. “Something wrong over here”, “OK, just quarantine it!” “My dog's starting to look a little bit....”, “Quick, QUARANTINE it!!!!”

Turned on the TV this morning around ten. This virus could very well be the next biggie. It's spreading at an exponential rate. The biggest part of the west coast of Scotland has experienced some sort of incident involving the virus. There doesn't seem to be any way to stop it. I'm sure there was a brief mention of an antidote or medicine that could help suppress the syptoms.

I've had the news on all day, well, for a good couple of hours, but that's as good as all day for me. Sky News has up to the minute coverage of this thing. I'm sitting watching the little bar at the bottom of the screen as it moves from right to left bringing new tales of infection from all around Scotland. Well there you have it, a nation of shite football players, artery hardened alcoholics and now an increasing tartan army of the undead. I'm sick of this bloody place!

News of the virus is spreading faster on twitter than it is in real life. Twitter isn't real life is it?

Heard there is a virus hitting Scotland at the moment. Not surprising, must be the black pudding suppers they have for breakfast.

Just saw unprovoked attack in Riverside Inn, Ayrshire. Some idiot came in drunk and bit a guy's ear off.

Nothing much happening in Stonehaven, but then again, nothing ever happens here. Viral free.

It's been 25 days since this thing really kicked off and it's still spreading. The authorities DON'T have it under control. Am I surprised? No. The best thing the government can do right now is stick their heads right up their collective arses and deny any responsibility. You can bet if they had it under control, they would be blowing their trumpets up and down the country.

At least Stonehaven is clear for the meantime. That's a stone's throw away from my mum and dad in Aberdeen. I'm not getting much sleep these days. I'm going to bed soon to try and make up for lost time. God knows, I need my beauty sleep.
