Scally And I Went For a mission to get some high stuff done tonight, we found a Crane in the building site of 'The Forum Apartments' we had a scout a about and finally entered the site.

We had a look at the crane but we didn't risk going up as there was quite a few residents looking out of windows or hanging out of them for a cigarette :(.

So, we entered the empty building just to the side of it armed with out torches we had a look around. It was just a empty building as persimmon are not building at the moment (heard that on 104.7 minster FM :laugh) there were not any tools an every thing was untouched.

We had a near miss while we were in the second story, we could hear sirens, it sounded like from all around us an getting closer we were flapping a little bit an just sat under a window in the dark to keep out of sight, as the sirens were right out side i peeked over the window sill an saw a fire engine go past so was a false alarm an we felt a bit silly.

so we carried on up to the roof, 5 stories High and took sum pictures over york, at the minster an the round-about on Foss Bank, Monk Gate, Heworth Green, and Huntington Road also sum other random pictures.

It's the highest Man-Made Object We've Done So Me And Scally Are Pleased :)

Scally is going to add his pictures tomorrow :) here are mine
