Was bored earlier this morning and thought sod it I want to do it, my bro was interested in coming along so off we went.

We didn't find the place I wanted to get into, but we found a couple of old buildings, one used to be a Scout Building and the other is a garage of some sort. (It's near a Kart circuit)

































C&C on the pics?

Some are ace, like the last, socket detail, fire exit sign (irony of a burnt fire exit etc.)

Not so keen on the first few though, and personally think the darkened edges to all the photos is a bit overdone.

Good job though
Hope you wernt at risk of going through those burnt timber floors!

I liked the shadowed edges as it gave an eerie feel to the pics

I'm glad you spotted the burnt Fire Exit

Thanks, and we didn't see the burnt floors until I took that pic, then left as wasn't a good idea going any further!

Thanks mate

Yeah have a look at 28dayslater, I've spent days looking through posts, and I've barely touched the surface. Some reports more amazing than others mind you. Decent pictures make it far more interesting. The user 'Downfallen' is one to look out for, he does my favourite reports.

Just find out about local places that got abandoned years ago, and go check them out, see if they're accessible etc

It was scary, but at the same time it was rush. Just make sure you never go alone.

I saw that earlier, and just spent an hour watching a Discovery Channel episode on YouTube about it. I never thought History could be so fascinating!
