At last we know what became of Beavis!

My ex-gf had similar labels in her bedroom closet! LOL!

It should give you the chills. In lots of institutions, patients were cagd up in these things for days on end! Treated worse than animals they were!

Nice graffito on the right side of the arch. Story o' my life! ; )

It's the frame for an old thingamajiggit somethingorother watchamacallit doohickey, what did you think it was?

Motts: Where is this place? I googled "Roseville State School" and only came up with your site. Did the institution go by a different name?

Archeologists asked the same questions when exploring the Egyptian pyramids. Plunderers tore through them all hundreds and thousands of years before. That's why King Tut's tomb was so special, it was untouched...until Howard Carter and the boys got to it!

Some people are just sh*ts, whether in 1000 BC or 2005 AD!

I dunno, in the case of Byberry, I think the morgue represents some relief from troubled lives.

Asbestos soup. No thanks!

I'd walk gingerly on tippy-toes under that baby!

But Ed, why tag inside a building that's gonna get demolished within the next couple of years?

Another great photo, Motts. I love the contrast between the emerald-green vegetation and dull, decaying brick buildings.

How utterly charming, Ed!
The only difference is the mold is smarter than Billy Idol and could probably make a better record.
I first thought that pick was a Mason jar with something gross in it!

Actually, that photo looks like the archival photos I've seen of neglected patients back in the mid-20th century. Minus the beer, of course! Oh, and the graffiti. And the patients didn't have buff arms, like this dude.

Not to get too PC, here, but if CJ worked at Byberry in the early '70s, she's probably became a WOMAN about at least 40 years ago!

...remove FUNNY BONE!!

(sorry, did anyone else have an 'operation' game as a kid?)
