Went up to Penrith to see my dear, daft Mum. Her cries at not having seen me in almost 2 months ringing loudly with Scottish Brogue in my ears, only barely drowned out by the steady thrum of the Toranas engine and gibberish driveline as i gunned along the M4 at some guessed speed that felt more right than what the darkened not completely functional ( Read more... )

You like the old smelters eh? Yeah this joint is fun, mothballed, with all the lights n old computers left on. You just have to dodge the odd security patrol. But with that umbilicus of pipework its not hard.

Funny that the way for almost 2 years noone went there. m looking forward to when they really shut the fucker down, even if means we lose the lights. Itd be mad to just walk around there to yer hearts content during the day. Prolly wont happen till just before they bulldoze the joint.

That smelter pic made me soooooo want to go back, I can't believe I was there at all now. That pic of Beachbum is so nice! That girl just get more beautiful each year.
Say hi to your mom for me, she is totally cool.

PS Got ousted today by one of the journalists as a clanner.... one of Skunks' friends. Funny getting asked if I'm a clanner in a lift in the Hilton, by someone I've known for ages, who somehow now knows one of the other sides of the PR chick...

You could go back if you wanted. We'd just have to be extra careful not to get bustz0red.
