Yesterday I visited a prison

I don't know what I expected but it certainly wasn't what I experienced. It was disconcerting to discover at the beginning that I could not tell who were prisoners and who were other visitors or education staff. And so many of them were much younger than I had imagined and as I later learnt on indeterminate sentences - they don't know when they will be released.
