I lived in a filthy squat in Camden and soon any money I had ran out and I was forced to fuck and suck my way through half of the area to fund my habit<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>Yet there was one constant thing during this whole time and that was little Miss Martin who ran the tobacconists nearly opposite the market<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>I often stole my cigarettes from there when buying chocolate <\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>Miss Martin knew that I was a thief but made no attempt to stop me.

I put this down to age and foolishly it did not bother me until one day when I entered her shop and found it in semi-darkness.
