Hellingly December 2009

After a bad start of waking up late which made me late for picking him up. We then had an incident where my petrol cap got frozen to my car so after 5 minutes after prizing the thing open we finally set off.

After meeting up with the other people we set off dodging the builders who look like they have started on park house but have stopped for so reason.



Anyway on with the pictures hope you enjoy....

Thats ok i will be going until most of it has gone will keep you all updated

nice one stu, you should chuck a sht up of the clean corridoors, i was suprised to see that bulldozer too.

Thanks for the update Stuwie.
Anyone know if the Main Hall is due to be demo'd? Considering such structures are becoming more of a rarity, it would be nice to see the Developers / Architect showing a little bit more flare & creativity, and a little less demo'

Well my theory is that the hall is way to "ard" to let a bulldozer knock it down. How many fires has it had
