Hi everyone and welcome to my first report. Now this is a little account of my first two weeks adventures!! I'm sorry to say there will be nothing new here but we've all gotta start somewhere right?! Sorry again as it may be a tad pic heavy but then again its not just of the one place, plus there's nothin much i can say about the places that hasn't already been said so il let my shoddy pics do the talking. I only have a crappy samsung camera as my partner in crime (clintqb) is the budding photographer so i leave the fancy shit to him and i go along for the ride. Anyhow enough babbling from me and onto the report..........

Me and clintqb being new to the game headed to High royds for our first trip out, this was a Friday midday so us being novices turned up see half the site was a new housing estate with builders and all kinds of folk all over the gaff. We did have a wander up to the main building and scope the place out abit but between the broad daylight and builders and all we decided it be a bit risky for our first endevour. Anyhow a quick snap of the place.

After our initial FAIL we decided to just head into Bradistan town centre as we knew ther were lots of mills etc that were derilict. First was a small mill at the bottom of Thornton rd. My only pics of here are of the crack den.

We were about to head up a rickety staircase to a rather unstable looking mezanine floor but were interrupted by 3 dirty bagheads who shot up ...... the said staircase probably to...... shoot up.
So onto the next one, I belive this place is Crabtree & son, just a couple of pics as I know its been done a few times.

That was the end of that days shinanigans but that was enough to give us the itch so here we are a week later at the Midland mill in Bradford centre, again I know it's been done a thousand times but i really enjoyed this place so here's my snaps...

Quick way to sort out flickr pics is instead of _m.jpg on the ends of the urls put _z.jpg easier than copying and pasting all the damn urls again worked for me anyway _z is 640 x 480 ... I think
