Nice one Mark! I just finished reading ‘Wasted’ and wanted to thank you. There are many similarities between you and me. I am an ex homeless junkie and you are a great inspiration to me. I hope that I go on to become as healthy and productive as you are. Thanks again, onwards and upwards!!!
Thank you for your article. It should have been front page next to Sean Mercer’s pic today.
I’m a comfortably off pensioner with a comfortable life behind her, but life in a Nottingham primary school, listening to my 21-year-old son and paying attention, has shown me how little understanding there is of how fortune deals very different circumstances to different people and how much this determines what choices we have.

Dear Mark,
Thank you for your article. It should have been front page next to Sean Mercer’s pic today.
I’m a comfortably off pensioner with a comfortable life behind her, but life in a Nottingham primary school, listening to my 21-year-old son and paying attention, has shown me how little understanding there is of how fortune deals very different circumstances to different people and how much this determines what choices we have.
Keep talking to us.
Yours, Hendrika
