i took some distinctly mediocre pics! key to it for me is looking at somewhere 15 miles up the road from me in rural england that motts made his own...seeing all that is worth every ounce of fear for me.

(this is of course utter bollocks and i was petrified every second. it was dark tho - 6am!!)

sian - just a bit! however, yesterday morning was the closest i've ever come to actually proper doing that! take one early morning (dark) visit to an empty asylum, a bad experience last time plus a strange noise in a deserted ward - instant laxative!

lynne - sorry...british vernacular. pikeys = people who like to call themselves "travellers" but are so far removed from romany traveller culture it's not even funny. they are currently busy stripping every ounce of copper from the cabling left in severalls. when we saw them leaving the other week they were loaded up with that plus about a million fluorescent tubes. now, each to their own and all that, but bumping into them when we're all technically breaking the law, them with big stripping knives and us with expensive cameras is not my idea of a good time!!!

I would not be surprised if ghosts or zombies or something walked out those doors.

For one thing, the original hall pic may be quite old. Granted if it was the case that it was needing to be repaired rather than just remodeled, then there would probably be some sort of problems with the newer ceiling.
It's a shame that the original beauty of the place was covered up, but at least the beautiful hall was still used, rather than torn down or some other action taken. And although the renovations weren't as aesthestically pleasing as the older ornamentation, they probably served the function of the room well at the time.

nickd: if you did make this a desktop background, it would be cool to make the TRASH be the actual fire exit.

The colors are just beautiful. And that would be a pretty cool place to have a light, if it were so.
