>Went to Reading December 65, left May 66. Five and a half months of what is probably known as `character building`.
Loads of PT. Loads of polishing. Endless cable stripping in that freezing cold shed. The smell of biscuits from the factory over the wall. Few beatings. Spent most of the time dying for a fag.
I can`t say I enjoyed it, but it must have done me some good. I joined the army 2 years later - I was already institutionalised, so I fitted in a treat.

All the best to everyone who did Reading
