Cheers Bug!

Had a great Halloween party in here. I went dressed in a body bag id yoinked from Hartwood Hospital mortuary and we got hammered on Daves collection of 1970s miniatures.. Accidently went to bed on top of a dead rabbit tho..

Sounds like a Halloween party of a lifetime

Great report! I was looking at Bawdsey on the map just the other day! Still trying to find some good spots around Suffolk to explore! Fascinating history here! Thanks! 😃

Some erotic switchgear porn right there. Londex, Reyrolle, English Electric - all the big ones. Comms room looks like it's racked out with GPO "light straw" frames too. Lovely stuff.
