These days, i seem to be doing more high stuff than abandoned buildings i can't figure if its the thrill of being somewhere you really, really shouldn't be - or the sheer amount of durp around at the moment!
Well anyway, we took the Hour drive from peterborough with the intention of hitting Corah, as I'm yet to do it - we heard its in an incredibly sorry state but just wanted to check it out for ourselves. After being in there for a hour or so we come across a room on the 2nd level and it was filled with peoples belongings and the tell tail signs of crackheads, so we was out.. don't fancy getting stabbed in the shoulder with a hypodermic needle.
Where next? the night is young and we have caffeine and Big John's Chicken in our system, after a scroll on the forum we saw the old post office, tried-and-failed thats pretty sealed now. so we thought lets call it a night but on our journey back through Leicester town centre we spotted the Premier Inn building. it had to be done really... after thinking up a game plan we tacked some, 20 flights of stairs... me being a fat b*stard i was by now sweating buckets when we got to the locked door to get to the second half of the tower.. DAMN... with a bit of mind power, we was into the next set of stairs.. We were on the roof, oh my its a spectacular sight!
Enough Rambling - Heres some Pictures (I forgot the damn Quick Release Plate for my Tripod so expect Loads of Noise and some un steady shots!!)
