Nice pics Guys! Place looks great, really nice, though I'm slighly freaked out by the homeless guy! LOL!!! For a second I thought that was Sheep, not having met you, LOL!! Apologies! Did he insist on touring you around? Was he living there? In which case I guess it'd be rude to turn down a tour of the guys house? Ha!

Really like that B&W frontage pic Bish, very cool!

JD

Yes that guy is a bit scary. I thought for a minute is was the Maharishi that the beatles used to hang about with. Who knows, maybe it is?

Nah that guy was really cool, he does live there but after looking at the building again he hid parts away from us so on the next expo will have a better look and try and map the building out. Lol. Not got long hair used to have.lol.Im the chubby one.lol. He did say that we are welcome there anytime so next week will be a long look around. Do you think you will come Jondoe?

The old chap who showed us around was cool, he didn't say
a lot and was very softy spoken but he had real affection
for this grand old building and knew it well. I'm not sure if
he is homeless though?

We thanked him when we left for showing us around and for
helping us get through the flooded cellar without anyone
getting wet, cellar has at least two foot of some of the
nastiest green shitty water I've ever seen. I offered the
old dude a few quid to get himself a pint or so he could
grab a few tinnies on the way home, he turned me down
and said he was cool which surprised me.

Yeah he looks like an unmade bed and thinking about it he
reminds me of Charles Manson (but without the swastika
and the demented glare), I shouldn't take the piss really
he was alright.

Ah! Just remembered him showing us the room with all the
needles in the cardboard box, he rolled up his sleeves and
showed me his arms to show he wasn't using. He did say
that one of the spoons was his though, he leant it to
some junkie and for obvious reasons didn't really want it
back. Maybe he does live there then?

I'll take some him some biscuits next time I go.

B ;)

yeah he was pretty cool, in his bags were a jar of coffee and a mug, so maybe the spoon was for that, he seemed scruffy but didnt have the same aspects of the usual junkie. Taking him some little bits like biscuits sounds a good idea. Never had a guided tour like that before but I still think he was hiding certain parts of the building from us, which maybe if he is not there next time might be a bit better for us. Would like to get in the Dome this time though but are going to have to be really carefull of the attic because the floor looked really dodge.
