Well, I'm not doing the history of Victoria Arches again, thats for sure so, on with the LOLz!


We've been wanting to do this for a while SO, off we went to Manc, me, Beardy and Alcoholic Andy :secret

I think Beardy wanted to go see steps but we made him go exploring instead of being gay, plus I wanted to try out my new torch http://www.gooutdoors.co.uk/cyba-lite-lightstar-275-p195286 and what a good bit of kit it is for the price!

Anyway, after parking up and wandering around we decided to annoy MJS for confirmation of access, yep, thats right, it's where i said it would be! GRRRR!

Anyway, over I hop, confirm we can do it and wait for Beardy and Andy.

So, this bit is typical Beardy. Having made him buy some boots, them made him bring them, guess what? The moron was STILL wearing his pumps (according to andy) he failed to climb a wall (in front of a BUS) cos his pumps have no grip LOL!

After that mess, they made it to where I was hiding and lo and behold, the way in was 2 inches deep in water, Beardy was not happy as he was supposed to be meeting his lover Charles after exploring and now cos he didn't wear his boots he would have to go in wet pumps.........wet pump, sort of describes him well really!

So through the water we go, after climbing down a conveniently placed ladder!


What a place! LOVE it, so interesting and cool to just be in. Thats good, cos the pics turned out a bit crap. You can't win them all!

Here are a few anyway!
