Only down the road for me so with JoeBGSU and Pixielulu for company we headed to St. Georges for a nice day out. I liked the way in, it put a big smile on my face. :)
Inside, I knew it was going to be pretty much nackered but I wasn't really expecting it to be so fucked. Wandering around there is nice big holes in the floors, massive sags and stuff collapsed all over the place. I don't think there was any glass which wasn't smashed. It was a shame to see the hall in such a state with a burnt out stage and scaffolding holding it all up. Spent quite a while trying to find a way to get to the tower, after a quick call to Ridds we had a way round, cheers for that.
We didn't get up, I climbed the bits where the ladder used to be but there was a board nailed over it.
So, with the light failing and with pixielulu having to pick up her kids, we headed back home.
I can only say, I will be back for that tower.
Here is some pics.
