 I watched a program on the telly the other day about the prison's of Britain, it was called something britain behind bars and it visited some prisons, like Durham it also visited shrewsbury prison which closed in 2013 I think and its where executions were held,. Shrewsbury prison is now a tourist attarction.  I have always wanted to visit prison and now I have the chance to go before it is probably knocked down and the land is sold to developers, well done Shrewsbury council for rejecting the previous plans and the prison would be no more. I am planning to go to Shrewsbury on the train which as it happens the prison is opposite the train station which is handy and the train journey will for the day will give me a few hours in shrewsbury  There is a tour there which you can go whcih is guided and there is one I think you can go on your own I am not sure if that just involves just wondering round yourself I think the guided tour is better as you will get more information, ...

I was nearly in crash today I say nearly as the bus I was in managed to slam the brakes on before it happened though everyone went flying forward.  This happened near the crossing of that ffestiniog railway thing in Porthmadog the driver in front of the bus slamed their brakes on so the bus had to do the same, I don't know if the person didn't see the lights or maybe the alrrm for the train did not go off soon enough to give the car a chance to stopslowly anwyway it was not a nice experience worse for the lady in front I guess as she went flying on her front to the floor. I got off the above bus and got the next one home which was half an hour late which is ok as it is a lovely day and I could sit in the sun anyway and there is not hurry to come back here really. I have contacted the dwp again just in case that some letter has got lost or something I do not fancy trying to reinstall the benefit anyway there was not a lot forthcoming  so I have to wait for a phone call...
