Years ago when the internet revolution had just been invented there was a spate of stories about young people in Japan who didn’t leave their flats and lived bizarre second lives through their PC screens. They would order in for food and barely see sunlight as their social lives slowly deteriorated. Can anyone guess where this is going?

Yep, that’s right, slowly but surely I’m becoming a creature of the night, shunning all social contact, emerging only to secure essential supplies that can’t be delivered via an online order. The only problem with this idyllic lifestyle is I don’t play live poker much these days – it’s just so much effort to actually have to travel somewhere when there’s so much action online.
