Visited with Mars Lander Sshhhh… and LuckyPants. Our epic journey started with disappointment, an unfound farm house,
the mightily trashed 10,000 Volt Cottage and finally the magnificent Sly Fox House.

This place was pretty remote and involved a detour across bridges, along streams, past a dead fox and finally to the door.
We weren't sure what we would find, and couldn't believe it when we saw inside. A random find which could so easily have
been dismissed, but ended up being one of the best explores for a long time.

WE CAME, WE SAW, WE CONCURRED. WELCOME TO SLY FOX HOUSE


And here he is, that sly fox...

Wow! A beautiful 1960's shirt box.


Let's have a closer look at that fox…

Loving your pix. not loving them pesky warble flies. And a long lost copy of the python album featuring the classic 'cheese shop' sketch! Class indeed.
 
do you have the pics in 'au naturel' ? i feel i'm missing the real quality of your great pictures :)
 
I didn't know Boots sold poison! Really good find

Boots sold many drugs and treatments that required the poison label back then. In those days many small time pharmacies and chemists, especially those that were located in or near farming country, sold all kinds of chemicals - many of which were classed as poisons. Today all you will get is your prescription filled, nothing for the kitchen table chemistry experiments that 12 year olds in 1955 scared their mothers with!
