      I worked as a nurse in Barlinnie Prison in Glasgow back in 1999. I met some of the roughest guys on the planet, but most of them were likeable. Rough family or no family, alcoholic father or no father, generational unemployment and crime, but still I saw them as my brothers. What would I have turned out like if I had been exposed to their sufferings, neglect and abuse? There are many saints on the inside and many devils on the outside. God bless all prisoners. "The only difference between them and us, is that they got caught". Fulton Sheen

    I've known Paul since I was about 16. Think the first time I met Paul was at a flat in seafar. Probably one of the times that I was thankful I wasn't on the wrong side of him. I had a drink and their was a bit of drama and being drunk and full of false confidence I mind saying something that got Paul's attention. He came out the kitchen and I sobered up rapid 😂 luckily he gave me a talk about alcohol and told me to be careful in future. Probably from that time I've always had time for Paul. Great that your sharing your story and moving upwards and onwards. Great guy. Definitely a changed man. Well done mate 👏

    Hello Shaun & Paul. Oh my goodness what a life and good to see Paul now at a better happy place in his life. Growing up in Glasgow myself, yes there was a lot of gangs.The McGoverns lived not far from me and we had them in our classes, also my mum grew up with the older families when she was a teenager back in the 50s. Kids now have to be educated with not taking knives with them to be a tough guy. They want nice cars, homes etc, well a good job is the way to go. Technology drives me nuts and when you hear the things that kids do to others online. Taking there own lives all that. That needs to be stamped out.

He was always fine with me but he was always someone that if you saw him coming you’d quickly about turn just incase 😂😂. I remember he just suddenly disappeared for years but that was obviously when he must have been jailed.
    It was always when you seen him, or Jay McCarol you about turned so you never got asked for a pound or stabbed 😂 glad he’s alright now.

    What Paul says describes Glasgow to a T I myself was the exact same as Paul growing up in the 80s in the east end of Glasgow it was crazy wee were all gang fighting all the time it was a very dangerous place to be and I was in and out of prison for years but in Glasgow it was a weird place to stay and it was more peir pressure from the older kids to go along with the flow and it just spirls out of control but thankfully most of us have a good think to ourselves and want to have a better life but it was very challenging thanks for your story Paul

    @shaunattwood and @paulsmith I enjoyed some of the stories that were told about the prisons paul had served time in, and hats off to you for turning your life around and maintaining employment and being a father...... but I have to say that for a man who has served so much time in scottish prisons, your knowledge of certain aspects of the system are ones you should know!!!!! Firstly for a man who got an LTP as a YO should know in Polmont the "Ally Cally" was simply an Allocation wing for YO's who have just arrived in the jail, the only prison at that time in scotland which had an allocation wing for simply holding YO's for a small period of time(usually only a few weeks) as the length of sentence you got, determined which wing you went too, and in my time there, 7 days to 8 months you were usually sent to Glenochil or kept in the "Ally Cally" 9-18 moths you were sent to North wing (known as "Vietnam" due to the violence) then you had South wing for the monsters,beasts and protections which im assuming was any length of sentence and finally you had East and West wing which was for YO's doing 19 months to 4 years. Anyway just thought i'd clear the Ally Cally story up for you Paul as ive also been stupid enough to be locked up most my adult life, done 16 STPs and 2 LTPs and been in most of the prisons in Scotland. I am from the east coast and there are stories Ive been wanting to tell the general public as they wouldn't believe and you and I can tell them about the real S.P.S. and the stories they wouldn't have wanted 'JOE PUBLIC' to know about so if you would like to collaborate lets start the dialogue and expose good (like big gibby the screw in Bar L) the bad and the ugly truth of the Scottish Prison service............Anyway I look forward to hearing from you if you genuinely want to put a book of small stories together as ive been in Perth,Polmont,Edinburgh,Kilmarnock,Barlinnie,Low Moss,Castle Huntly and Shotts from 1998-2021. ALL in mainstream

    • @FatMontana84
      @FatMontana84 Год назад

      I was in ally cally in 2001 and got moved to north wing then to west wing then to north wing again then in 2004 before I got out they opened Iona hall so I got moved up there.
      I can tell you that Polmont in early 2000’s was a war zone, total carnage and most violent place I’ve ever seen

    Like Paul says at around 20 mins, I've seen big changes in the West of Scotland over the last 20 years. For the better. I don't know if it was by design but casual, random street violence has reduced dramatically. The number of young guys out and about causing bother has drastically reduced. Maybe it's because those crazy shell suits went out of fashion so they're not as noticeable.😄

      Aye was there in 2001 when it was a proper dump, then moved to north wing which was a jungle, riots constant, stabbing, slashing nearly everyday then got moved to west wing which was mental as well as was under 18’s then back to north wing then got moved to the new Iona hall at the time which was drug free, that was 2004 when I got out.
      Hell on earth and also was on big remand in Kilmarnock early 2001 and was g wing at the time they put us in which was next to beast wing which was H wing, weird jail that, with the bubbles in the middle and the wings off it.
      Place was a joke though, cons ran it and screws could do nothing about it, very dangerous jail tbh

He speaks of tellies in cell's, we didn't even have radios unless we sacked up a screens ass. But still total respect paul cause u done it the hard way. & I've no doubt if back in 80s you still woylda been a thorn
    . But they used to dub jail up. String cons up ,stand them on a chair & kick the chair away & go home for the night. Why I don't really believe Jimmy boyles story cause he woulda had a " ripped towel." Round his neck. Lomgwise. .& thryd leave the body hanging till morning screws found them. In bar it generally happened in 29 o think , cause single cell. But total respect
