Astoness said Tracking, SB, not Cracking.
Tracking is where the men and dogs went on her trail every time she managed to get out, which was usually on a foggy day by the sound of it.

I am surprised she got over those walls they are very high!

I believe the gates were never locked, most of the inmates being incapable of understanding the purpose of a gate and the rest being greatly troubled by the latch.

The problem with Lyn though is that she is easily enticed by food. When the mobile sandwich van went passed she was as crafty as a squirrel and like a possessed Ferret. She would be down the road and clinging to the back of the van before anyone missed her. It always takes three German Shepherds and a big piece of wood to catch her. (But she always gets back in for lunch time)

Would we dare say anything that wasn't?

I was a bit dubious about the piece of wood.
is this how we plan to pad out to 100,000?
