Maitland Gaol.
This place obviously appealed to Chris and his interest in the macabre and serial killers. It really was a fascinating place and I can't believe it only closed in 1998...so it had an eerie feeling of some history being far too recent....we walked into cells where murderers had been only 8 years ago! It showed prison life and conditions dating right back to the mid 1800s; our guide was a jolly chap who delighted in telling tales to scare the children and us! He appologised for one cell block that he showed us which stank of beer; he said that a rather rowdy party had been staying in there the night before and they were still clearing up. ( the funny thing about this was that when Chris went to school on Monday, one of the other members of staff said she had been to a surprise venue hen night......guess where? Chris teased her although she declared it had been the other, boys group! (oh, yeah!)

We warned them not to misbehave!!
