How long would you last in prison?

Watching Wentworth Prison and bloody hell, it makes Orange Is The New Black look like Disney World Grin

Always knew I wouldn't last long looking at Orange, but in Wentworth I doubt I'd make it to episode two! I'd be such an easy target, ffs all they'd have to do is break my glasses and I couldn't even see 'em coming.

If you were in prison, do you think you'd make it to the end of your sentence without a gruesome ending?!

Obviously, I know tv dramas probably bear little resemblance to prison life but whatever about artistic license I still wouldn't fancy my chances. Actually, in real life prison I'd be toast anyway as a type 1 diabetic without access to proper medical care.

How would you fare?

If I was locked up 23 hours a day with a TV and some books I think I’d actually be ok, if I had to share a cell, I can’t guarantee two would come back out, I’m not very tolerant of people for very long periods of time and wouldn’t cope. Especially if they were talkers.

As a teenager I think I would have been fine. I don’t think I’d cope at all now, although I supposr when you’re in that situation you just get on with it. I can’t even cope with the meals they give you in hospital so don’t know how I’d manage with that!

I'm going to find the biggest, baddest most scary lesbian there and declare myself her toy as long as she protects me. If she says no, about 5 minutes Wink Grin
