Breakfast? As much as I hate the cheeky cockney tw*tter, prison needs Jamie Oliver. It was supposed to be sausage, a plum tomato and scrambled egg. I would have been better off having shat on my plate. And that’s another thing, plates. You get one plastic plate, bowl, spoon, knife and fork. They’re yours, for the duration of your visit. I head down from the 3rd floor of a large Victorian prison wing, to the ground floor, where meals are handed out. Then it’s back up to your cell, with your meal, where you’re locked back in to eat. If you eat all of your food, it’s probably a miracle, or you’re a sadist. Anything left on your plate (likely), you can’t take it back or put it in the tiny bin in the cell. You cut it up into small pieces and flush it down the cell toilet. I bypass most of breakfast and put it straight down the toilet. A bit like being bulimic but without having to taste the food twice. How do you wash your now greasy plate and utensils? In the small cell sink, used also for washing yourself. No washing up liquid, just grease.

LoL

Some sobering reading. Will really make me think about some of my more 'spirited' driving habits.

Should really be required reading when applying for your Provisional.

Theres a horrible feeling of "never happen to me" about the initial incident, but of course, it did happen to him...

Only read a few pages (so far, will read it all), at least he got in to an open prison rather than being left in a medium security for the entire time.

Interesting read.

Aint nothing like an American prison though... jesus.

I think an account of that would be a bit different.

I got a get a trip, or tour if you like, through Limerick Prison about three years ago. It really is as bad as you think. Sobering story alright. Read three or four days of it.

From when i read it first, i got the impression that he just spun out, as in not his fault. But then he says it was his fault, i might of missed it, but he never said exactly what he was doing etc.

There's more backround to the events here.

I have only read th first couple of days but it does make you stop and think. Fair play to Daniel for writing it. I will post this later in the ES forum too. No harm to spread it around boards

I know this guy is trying to be forthright and share his experience but does it not seem a bit strange that he got twelve months and as he says he never was in trouble with the police and also pleaded guilty. I don't know whether they give tougher sentences across the water but it seems there have been people over here who've killed people and not been imprisoned. Is there more to this than on the blogs ?
