Today I did some exploring in a underground bus depot. We walked down the whole tunnel. Luckily we had bright LED lights on our camera, otherwise I wouldn't have gone so far. We thought we spotted some motion sensors so we figured out a way to avoid them. There was still a loud beep every 2...
Like everyone else I've held off posting this, but as things are at the moment I thought I may as well stick up my photos from here. I really enjoyed visiting this place, so much so these photos are taken over about 3 or 4 visits to the place over late 2012/early 2013.

Times have been hard for Tinky Winky, Dipsy, Lala and Po since the BBC decided to cancel the show following news reports of Lala and the rent boy.
Once the show was cancelled times became hard for the stars, once all the money was gone the bank foreclosed on tubby land

As things are pretty slow for me at the moment I thought I'd have a poke through some of my older stuff which hasn't made it on here.
This formed part of my first ever multi-day roadtrip in October 2011 going from Oxford all the way to Birkenhead via Atherstone and Stoke-on-Trent. It was at one...
The web should be full of posts of the RAW (Reichsbahn Ausbesserungs-Werk) probably...was there in Oct 2013, I believe it�s the most colourful abandoned place I ever saw (might have exaggerated just a bit ;-)
