KNOWSTHORPE INDUSTRIAL GOODNESS!
MMMMMMMMMM!

Knowsthorpe seems to be a big industrial centre in Leeds that Ive never really been round and is packed full of things to mooch round. One of the sites was the reason why a couple of months back me and MJS went on the infamous 3 hour long "Bow, Arrow and Next bag Mud March". Having taken this long to clean our jeans we were back on the trail with fellow L.L.S member Fowle joining.

What MJS thought was a "Rock Breakers" :confused: turned out to be a Tarmac mortar plant.

This time on the more direct route to it we came across a lovely looking drain or big culvert thing (I dont know what there called, all I know is there is moisture coming out or into them and I like to go in them)

So we went back a day or two after armed with a ladder to make our way into the river a bit more elegant.

LEEDS TARMAC MORTAR PLANT

VISITED WITH MJS AND FOWLE

Was a cool site to rock around, managed to get on top of a couple of the tower things and had to hide when men came on site....

Thats that, now the Drainnnnnnnnnn!

THE LEEDS LOL DRAIN

VISITED WITH MJS

Was really excited to be going back to this I almost forgot to bring my Lucazade, had to drop MJS off with the ladder then park the car and walk back up on me tod in my Wad0rs. I think the parked up lorry drivers must of thought I was a kinky neoprene rent boy.

Basiclly it runs under and around a live sewage works with lots of activity above.

My pictures didnt really come out that cracking so dont hold tha's breath...

It may or maybe not be a derped sewage works! I popped my head in looks mint but will be hard to do, I don't fancy sneaking round on a live site with my wad0rs on. Maybe some sort of James Bond style tuxedo under my wad0rs effort needed!
