Out Playing.
Theres a Hearts Vs Celtic game on at Tynecastle Football Stadium across the road atm. I hope i get out of the area before it reaches its (inevitable... Celtic will win) conclusion.
Ive been busy the last 5 days, with the oldies now back tho, i can only reminisce...
After climbing the Forth Rail Bridge on the Monday, i went to Methil on the bus to explore Methil Power Station:
The bus, barrelling thru the Kingdom of Fife hit a suicidal Pheasant on the way there, and on the way back had to be diverted to a bus depot cos someone chundered all over the back seats. The powerstation itself was sweet, small, but cool. Fun to get into, hard to get out of... i ended up having to run across the front of the site in full view of both security guards.
Afterwards, i went to Pumpherston, a mining town outside Edinburgh n did a Mine shaft drainage tunnel:(pic by Monkeygirl)
Then to the Scotland Street tunnel, a 160 year old train tunnel that runs under the New Town in Edinburgh:(pic from Sub-Brit)
The next day i drove out to Inverkip n stealthed my way (with a bit of Phone-a-Friend help from Snappel) into the Power Station there:
Heading back to Edinburgh via Glasgow i stopped in the city centre and did an newly found drain, which ended up being quite wonderous, big enough to stand in (a first for Scotland), a good mile long, built in 1870 and decked out in river cave-esque calcite formations. Was wicked:

Only a few days till i move to London. It will be good to start processing my own shots. Ive got nearly 20 rolls to do, n this time i marked each one so i should be able to process them in chronological order... i can stop pinching other peoples... :S
Meantime, a big GET WELL SOON shout out to Steve Duncan of Undercity in NYC. He did
to his hand down a drain :S
