Southport Pleasure Land - 10/09/06

[Spook]

Myself and Benwrx decided to take a trip up here tonight for a look after a quick walk we were over the fence and heading for the traumatizer (fucking big rollercoaster):D . We had seen security doing a patrol of the outside of the fence so knew they were present. Not knowing how long we had we shot up to the top of the traumatizer for some birds eye view shots only to have security walk straight past us. Fortunatly we weren't seen so after another wait we set off to get some more of the place done. A good look round the other rides and a quick climb up the rickety wooden coaster, it was time to hit the ghost train:eek: . It was realy wierd with no scary lights or noises but good to see all the scary figures. The shops are still full with goods including drinks and food you realy can tell this place has only been closed a week. All in all an amazing trip security is tight and police presense is good (they were parked opposite as we hopped back over the fence:cool: ). Brilliant place probably the best explore i've done and nice to do something different to a hospital. Hope to get back there soon for a second look. Hopefuly this place will stay mint as security is top notch and it isn't accesseble for twatty chavs so vandalism shouldn't be a problem. Any how heres a few pictures:

Computers being a twat so will put pictures up when i've had a bit off sleep and got more patience:mad:

Spook's gone to bed and asked me to post up some of his pictures. No apologies for the size, they are so good, and it's such a unique place I wanted to show them as big as possible.

Those night time photos of Pleasureland are just completley awesome!

The Cyclone forms the background for a lot of photos on the site myself and my friend are due to open anyday now www.solidsurf.co.uk and I'll be gutted if it goes.

Here are the daytime photos I took the other day when I heard that it was under threat. They don't compare, but WTF........

Spook are you connected to "Northern Star" photography???

If not, you might be interested to know they are flogging one of your piccys on e-bay

If that don't work type "pleasureland" into e-bay, it's framed and mounted and cropped a bit, but from what I can see, it's either yours, or their camera was in EXACTLY the same position as yours was when you took the piccy - just try lining up the prominent things in the piccy -wooden coaster structure with the surroundings etc..!

If you are the sellar, hope it sells well, if not, sue their ass for copyright and I'm on 10% lol
