Prison calendar becomes a surprise hit
Near-naked nurses and cute kittens are typically some of the most popular calendars, but one featuring Britain's top prisons has become a surprise hit.
The calendar 'Her Majesty’s Prisons Of England 2009' shows a selection of 12 slammers from Strangeways to Dartmoor.
Kevin Beresford, from Worcester, came up with the idea after getting bored of seeing the same calendars of Jordan and Cliff Richard everywhere.
The 56-year-old said orders have have come pouring in to his website and that the calendar seems to appeal to all sorts of people.
Even so, it is probably not the best gift for someone doing a 10-year stretch in Wormwood Scrubs.
The £8.00 calendar features HMP Leicester, HMP Liverpool, Strangeways prison, Nottingham prison, Long Lartin, HMP Gloucester, Blakenhurst, Winson Green, HMP Hull and Dartmoor.
Her Majesty’s Prisons Of England 2009 could even be adorning the wall of UK Home Secretary Jacqui Smith, the Redditch MP laughed at it when Kevin gave her a copy.
