Holy Shit this all sucks, sometimes the Legal System in my adopted country really needs to go have a word with itself I'm new on here so dont know if I even have the right to comment. But I've had a few friends that have done some time in the UK, and overseas, and I think compared to a foreign nick you'll do fine.You get some uninterrupted training time, and no bills to pay for around 14-18 months.
On a sidenote, if anyone called "Raymond the Bastard" tries to draw you into anything shady, try to avoid it. The clue's in his nickname...)
Your barrister/legal team sound shit. I'm an ex squaddie who now works in the legal industry, and sometimes it makes me cringe to admit that, I'd rather say I'm a social-worker or something...
Sending out a good thought for you fella, keep your eyes open and your mouth shut (and your balloon-knot too...
and you'll do fine, be out way before your 3 is up.

ps, try not to come out wearing "prison-bitch" style jeans, that's unbecoming at your age..
Good luck and be safe fella.
