    not wanting to piss on anyone's bonfire but i was told by someone was in there a few weeks ago it is pretty much just a concrete shell now. check out the newest reports over on 28dl, saying that the tunnels are still there.

    Oh and the club part was coast to coast, closed around 93ish IRC

    anyway thanks for the heads up about the asbestos, I'll be getting some masks to cover my mouth and nose for the next time we venture in.
    Just a note on safety, most "bra type" nuisance dust masks are next to useless regarding airborne asbestos. Disposable respirators to standards EN149 (type FFP3) or EN1827 (type FMP3);
    - half mask respirator (to standard EN140) with P3 filter; or
    - semi-disposable respirator (to EN405) with P3 filter.s are H.S.E recognised . Hope this is useful to the cautious ones amongst us.

    I do belive my Wife goes to the same forum as your other half, the Hair extension forum? If not I have the wrong person, and yeah, like i said before, all the good stuff has been taken out, but still I wouldn't mind going for an explore and a meet up even, anyone still up for it, or not?

    also thanks, Rob xjr for the heads up about the masks, im sure my dad will be able to get some of these from his work.

    Although a couple of people (myself included) expressed an interest, there was no actual 'meet up' arranged. To be honest, its probably the kind of thing I'd tackle as and when I'm that way. I'd suggest contacting the others via PM, but keep it off here
