Recommended Posts

I agree entirely Carni, but at least the WH was infinitely better than dying in the gutter penniless and starving. 

It also provided schooling for the children, and hopefully instilled some much needed  discipline in some cases.

I've been to the one in Southwell, and it is a real eye opener for us lucky folk.
