I feel completely stateless right now. [...] Where on earth do I belong?
Same place I do from the sounds of it: nowhere geographical.
Physical places miss the point, as I see it. Oxford in the early 90s was a place I loved, but that place ceased to exist long ago - Oxford today shares little more than the name and a few old buildings. Likewise for Cambridge in the 80s. Feltham isn't my place either, but it's where I want to be right now. And next... who knows, but it doesn't really matter.
Events. Ideas. People. Games. My world is made of these things, not geography.
