Hi there,
My name is Stephen.
I will write to you and try to fill you guys in with what's happening in QLD prisons, especially Wolston. I am in residential and landscaping and my wages are $30.00 per week, my hygiene allowance is $9.81 and TV rental $2.00 per week.
Last week's menu included:
Boiled Eggs (2) – Tea – Roast Chicken
Beef Patties – Beef Bolognese – Beef Snags
But our food menu revolves around different meals.
If we want a TV, we must rent one for $2 per week. Over in Rec you get a remote with your TV – in secure you don't.
It is 13 October 2024 and most of my unit are watching the Repco Supercars on 7. In my unit there are six single cells – the Common Room has a main TV and seating. It’s Sunday and I am going to watch the race.
Yours,
Stephen
