    Default Sandwell College - Smethwick - March 2013

    Fancied doing this place just before Christmas, but for one reason or another i couldn't! Now i had time and opportunity we shot over to Birmingham at warp speed, and arrived to snow (birmingham and snow, my two favourite things).....

    A few members of the little group that formed in the car park down the road had been before and been thwarted by Mr Security. There are 4 or 5 buildings, 2 being fairly massive building, interlinked by some lovely little glass corridors....... so no hiding ther, so i prepared my commando crawl, and off we trotted.... bit gutted i didn't need it in the end, must of been toasty warm in that caravan....

    We managed to get round the whole site,including the seperate media building, and the projector room, which was mildly elusive at first... with no site of anyone, except another bunch of explorers although we saw them through a window and never crossed paths.....
    definitely no PO-LICE, or there dogs, although the stench of dog still hasn't left my nose, i have a horrible cold, it seems to have stuck in there, maybe the police should have clean up after your dog training..... just saying

    It's a lovely old building, in parts, people definitely photograph the best parts (naturally) and you have to walk around alot to find them, the main blocks are derped to high hell! but its a good explore, once i got over how trashed the non photographed parts are!!

    i've looked at the available history, and there is only the exact same piece all the other reports have, so for that reason i am omitting to put any and you can just enjoy my lovely little story above
