Yeah that's what I thought too Kerry, it's not very well written at all though. To be fair there is an authors note at the begining saying the story is pieced together from scraps of paper he managed to have smuggled out of the prison over the years and it shows. It's definitely not ghost written as I suspect a lot of prison memoirs are, it looks as though he's just had a go himself with very limited literery skills.Still, I only paid 1p for it (+2.80 postage) so I can't grumble. Still waiting for Flock to arrive. I had to order it from the US it's taking forever
