Top screws 😂

Most currupt

Fun fact. When these, "hard men", get transferred to, HMP Lowmoss. 8 out of 10, refuse to get out the wagon. Out of fear, as they have no friends there.

Magic! I was born there (on Waterside) 4 years before. Thanks for posting this wee gem! Yes, unfortunately IDC ripped the heart out of this lovely wee town by building that abomination of a shopping mall where the old bridge was, and demolishing a fair chunk of Fullarton. Very sad…

Ruined the town tho

What a bloody joke get there sweeties and crisps newspaper wonder what else they get government ought to toughen up

They ruined Irvine in the 70s with all the brick and block horrible buildings. The magnum was exceptional though! Now Irvine is dwindling like every other town in Scotland.

Husband said the best jail food ever and canteen ok

I originally come from Kilwinning. You could drive in the town centre or Main street up until 1982? Not quite sure exactly when in the 80's it was pedestrianised. But I lived in Claremont crescent just off the A737. My grandparents lived in the Woodwynd. Looking at the main street now, it looks absolutely shocking. It was a busy wee town back in the 70's and 80's. The pub might be the Lemon tree. Dino Biondi (legend!) the Biondi's are well known! Good to see Dino is still in business! I believe Paul Biondi shut up his restaurant (Trattoria Toscana) I visited that regularly! Charlie Burns shoes (An old pal Graeme Burns is the son I was at school with). I have so many stories about life there!

Best jail about

Bullies and thats the officers there a joke its shocking the amount of staff go through these doors of this prison

I went here from Barlinnie prison when it first opened in 1999. It’s mad to think that was a quarter century ago. There was 2 cons in the hall when I got there. Everything was brand new. Quilt, bed, prison clothes etc. in Barlinnie you got around £7.50 a week to spend at canteen. £2.50 ppc and around £5 a week for working in the sheds. When we got to Kilmarnock I got over £60 odd for canteen just for walking in the door. In bar the canteen was just smokes, crisps and a couple o chocalate bars. The most luxury item they sold was a jar o jam. In Kilmarnock the canteen was like a shop. They sold all sorts o shit. In bar or any sps ran nicks the screws had the places well under hand. In Kilmarnock the screws weren’t screws. They had been collecting trollys in super market car parks and stacking shelves the week before. To say they were completely and utterly clueless and gullible is an understatement of epic proportions. They weren’t just clueless though. Some of em were corrupt. Or just scared of the cons. There was an old “screw” (I think his name was colin. Don’t quote me on that, it was a long time ago) that brought us in bottles o vodka. They would pass and collect drugs from other wings for us. One sat in a cell with a good few of us snorting tems n shit. I think he may have even snorted one himself. The place was awash with drugs especially compared to any sps nick with the exception of the old low moss. After a while when the place was almost full there was people sneaking big huge kitchen knifes from the cooks back to their cells. And using em. If anyone has ever done time in an sps jail and worked in the sheds with tools or in the cooks you’ll understand how absolutely insane that is. In bar or any sps nick they would lock the whole entire prison down and systematically search every inch if even so much as a tattie peeler went missing. To see people cutting about with big ten inch kitchen knifes was crazy. The lack of security from screws not having a clue made the prison extremely dangerous. Even though there was cameras there ended up being some pretty violent incidents. The screws would run out the hall when it kicked off. I had never seen anything like it and have never seen anything like it since. I loved it. As far as prisons go I mean. Sorry for the novel but there was a lot to tell.

wow

Any spare coppers so I can buy SPICE

That place was full of nonces and wee cardboard gangsters

Acc a really good jail

When that woman mentioned Maureen Aldridge my dear departed neighbour!!! Wow

i was in bowhouse when it just opened it felt like a holiday camp as i have been in barlinnie some of the officers were people i went to school with

I was in bowhouse 3 months after it opened, in h block 1 and they didn’t have a clue they used to hand us out letters unopened, we got all sorts in like that. Crazy times 99-02

Got to feel sorry for the poor screws having to take that crap every day, better men than me.

Holiday camp

A wing fae 2018 till 2021 canter too easy

Holiday camp the reason why they build walls around prison is to keep people from getting in for a holiday

At last I’ve seen inside the factory where so many folk in the Three-Towns worked, including my father, aunt, my mother till she married my dad - met him there of course. I’ve seen Ardeer Rec ( Christmas dance supplied tangerines for our stockings each year!) and Africa House and some of the work folk did. I remember the cooling tower, whose prominence in the area was large, and the day it fell down never to be rebuilt (no casualties as I recall) The prosperity of the town’s relied on it, especially when cheap package trips abroad replaced going doon the watter for the fair.

Bunch a weak officers and wanna be gangsters great jail eh defo the place for punishment
