There is only one world; the world pressing against you at this minute. There is only one minute in which you are alive; this minute here and now. The only way to live is by accepting each minute as an unrepeatable miracle.

I went over to Gloucester today to visit the prison. It's not been in use for about 5 years or so and now you can take a look around. Not cheap - £15 for solo wandering and a bit more for a guided tour. I'll go back and do the guided tour next time as I'm sure I missed lots of stuff. A lady who had done the tour pointed out some things for me and I had a chat with a guy who had gone to see his old cell and he told me what it was like staying there. All very interesting and a pleasant few hours .......................

Sounds like a really interesting place. Anything like this in London would be heaving with visitors thereby spoiling the atmosphere.

It was nice and quiet yesterday - probably helped by the Tall Ships event being on over the road at the docks so most people were there. I also timed it well to be inbetween the guided tour groups so had a lot of the place to myself.
