Just Had Letter From Son In Prison...
23 Answers
Well, he says he is ok (well he would say that wouldn't he) and that they have sorted out his medication very quickly. He says it is very hot in there and can I get his sister to send in some of his t shirts, underwear etc( all his clothing is at her house in his car).
You aren't allowed to smoke in prisons at all now apparently - which I didn't know - so he has ordered an e-cig which arrives on Friday.
He's appealed against his sentence but isn't very hopeful. Am not sure who suggested to him to appeal. He's also enquiringly about being released on tag, but if everything is refused then his release date is 26th January.
Oh and he's got a book from the prison library and is reading that.
So it seems quite an upbeat letter - that may be for my benefit but was lovely to hear from him.

Anyway, all sounds positive.

The prison library was always my first port of call when starting a sentence, I never read so much...especially in the days before in cell TV's.

Ive mentioned before that the no smoking ban is been rolled out across all UK prisons. My sons mate has been in HMP Oakwood for 7 months and they have just banned smoking. He says that other cons are smoking tea leaves or anything else they can get their hands on. A bit cruel in my opinion to ban a perfectly legal substance that helps cons get through their time
