and heres a video of the same


Its 15 quid a time for a tour (could get a job there myself...), would be nice to go back there, knowing that in 2 hours I would be walking out again!

Would your curiosity allow you to pay to see the inside for yourself?
(save your money, I can tell you)

Mosaic - I visited Melbourne jail - now museum. Fascinating to read stories on cell Walls about prisoners. Things like deported from England for stealing a ladies hankerchief. ! Did Alcatraz visit too - like Naomi.
Have also visited many real prisons in UK when a relative was going through a time of being sent there.
And I did once go to Pentonville to appear in a show for prisoners. I was a magicians assistant, dressed in lacy silver mini dress.

carpy..I Got sent home to change when visiting Norwich prison to do a pre release course !! my skirt suit was considered much too short !! lol...

Peterborough prison is scaryyyyyyy..took longer to get in than out..ex had to visit ..something to do with Health and safety and the planned nearby oil pipelines..

Alcatraz was eerie and quite sad I thought..

[grasscarp]

Hello Murraymints. Yes Alcatraz sad, but got a really horrible feeling in one of the Melbourne cells - it was very cold and bad vibes.
BTW I answered you on Stew thread last week. Thank you for kind wishes.

Hasn't Oxford jail been turned into a posh hotel?

[nailit]

if anyones still reading this thread,
This wednesday 9pm (on itv i think) is a 3 parter drama called Prey. The prison scenes are filmed in this very cell block.
Will be nice to see my old high rise flats where I used to live...or as the authorities like to refer to them, cell blocks!

[murraymints]

will set to record that Nailit ! x

[nailit]

Enjoy Minty,
I know its jail but I had some good times there. (some bad ones as well).
You'll never meet a mixture of characters like you do in prison.
