On joining H.M.Prison service and being posted to the 'University of the Moor' and well before the PC brigade entered the arena,Dartmoor 'nick' was well staffed with ex booties and of course well stacked with bootneck humour.
The segregation unit (the block) was full of obnoxious b'stards and so called hard men one of which would throw the contents of his pot at the unlocking officer.The ex bootie I was on duty with on one particular evening stated,jr I've had enough of this b'stard cover for me for about 10 minutes,the ex bootneck in question went to the Prison Chaplains office borrowed the 'sky pilots' shirt and dog collar came back to the seg unit dressed as a Chaplain unlocked the obnoxious one and proceeded to fill him in.
Next morning governors rounds the con in question complained to the governor that during the night the chaplain had entered his cell and kicked 7 bells of shi'ite out of him? the governor of course said Oh Yea tell me another one,cell door slammed no more problems.Now thats treatment and training bootneck style.Aye jr
