Someone (possibly Yeovil??) posted a link to another forum where they break into old closed buildings and take photos...

There were mental asylums and old air force bases and stuff. Linkage please anyone?

That Tyson house is cool!! loving the green pool. I was thinking of exploring... maybe a camping trip to Chernobyl. That would be mega ace.

For Stalker - the electronic video game - publishers THQ ran a couple of press trips to Chernobyl except that the game took so many years to appear that some journos who had been following the game couldn't keep going out as they had too many doses of radiation.

It sounded fun though. In a way.

My interest was peaked by this documentaty:



It's on youtube in several parts but it really is quite good. It approximates what would happen to the world in the event of our untimely demise. Chernobyl is listed as no humans went there in 25 years so they have cast iron evidence of what it would be like in 25 years.

John that is mint. Can you type out the URL for me please so I can do some further viewing?

Not quite as exciting as Chernobyl, but I've always thought the Swindon College building at Regent's Circus would be quite cool to have a wander around now.
