Visited with various people along the way, but always with Fortknox0 and most of the time with obscurity, it was fun cracking these and a great sense of achievement once all three were done! :) . The three plants are all connected by pipes and tunnels....I think, and all play a part in the treatment and release into the sea (foreness) of thanets sewage! YUM! The smell of victory! ;) .

So first up was Joss bay pumping station:

All of the sites are at some point connected by tunnels like this that make for an interesting night out!

Shame really, back when I was a naughty graffiti school boy we gained access to these tunnels, with the strip lights in and a little railway down it presumably for tools, if only I had a camera and the interest back then.......DAMN!!

Thanks for looking, Frosty.

As far as I know, Lightroom strips the data out of mine when I export the pics.
