The second splore of the day, for the elated crew! :jimlad:Myself, AlternativeDayOut, Ninja Kitten and Perjury Saint set off on dry land, hoping our tired sea legs would hold out and carry us towards our next destination,in search of brains.
We thought nothing would top the ballroom but this place was a bizarre and altogether strange splore in itself. This place had an odd influence on AlternativeDayOut, who went all Damien Hirst on us, creating strange structures, one he named 'brainhenge'. You will see. We looked for a staight jacket that may have been left behind but alas there was none, so we had to leave him to his crazy notions, though keeping an adequate distance incase any more of his lunacy rubbed off on us.:wacko:
The temperature dropped dramatically in here, so when my hands started to turn blue, it was time to vacate. Thanks NK for the use of your mystical, magical bag of heat!
This mortuary block is one of the few remaining untouched buildings, most of the Asylum and its grounds has been redeveloped into housing and refurbished apartments. Unbeknown to the occupants of these 'luxury' and most likely extortionately priced homes lies, literally feet away, is the mortuary containing brain samples from the previous residents. Bet the estate agents left that out of their shiny brochures!
Again, thanks guys for yet another fab splore with your awesome company!
On with the pics.....
The brains that would later be fashioned into an elaborate piece of art
The headless mummified cat
A squirrel, who in search of nuts got more than he bargained for.
The brain slicers chair, where they would sit and ponder on the days outcomes with a brew from the flowery teapot.
Freezer section
Have a look at this little vid from Alt.
