It has been a while since the Mookster and I hit the urbex trails together, however after a few messages back and forth we sorted out what we felt was a list full of great explores. We knew some were an unknown quantity and agreed that if all else fails we could always use HMP Gloucester as a permission visit back up. We were never going to need it, I mean really, why would we?
Fast forward to explore day, an early start to try our first site, no way in other than in full view of the locals so we moved on, site two and what a prospect new unknown and …. No way in, site three one we spotted while travelling to site two yup you guessed it no way in and it’s not even 9am. Unfazed we went for a sure-fire cert, I mean RAF Rudloe its been done and recently so off we trotted. We skirted the fence line probing for a way in, and there it was a way in smiles all around…2 seconds later smiles are gone and we are hiding in the long grass trying to ensure we aren’t seen as the security team (Dad, daughter and dog) turned up and let themselves in no more than 10 meters from us. We waited for him to turn and walk away from us into site and took our chance to beat a stealthy retreat. On to our penultimate site and again no way in. Things didn’t go any better at the final site we went to park and clocked a K9 training unit right where we wanted to be so we cut our losses and head to yes you’ve guessed it HMP Gloucester.

Don't forget that to add insult to injury a sea gull decided to dump it's load on me walking through one of the exercise yards!
