Another from 2012 I've only just bothered to sort out and stuff (I still have photos from 2011 to sort out, such is the slow turn around in this miserable corner of the English Midlands).

I have a general avoidance for all things high, not because of a fear as such, but more a lack of motivation in that sector. A brief few years residing in the North West introduced me to city centre building sites and the roofs of the many apartments which litter Manchester, but mostly my limited effort has been focussed on stuff underground and occasionally a cheeky abandonment, sometimes an even cheekier operational industrial plant or an operational stone mine, but less said about that the better.

Palais De Justice, the main law place in the Belgium capital is a big 19th century domed lump of stone and stuff, surrounded by big statues of representing human females. It's covered in scaffolding and wasn't that difficult to do, at least at 2am in the fog when everyone else is wandering around doing Belgium things. I had a kebab afterwards which was rather agreeable, less grease and more flavour than the British job.

I post two reports a year, and one is usually 6-18 months overdue at the very least!
