Mockingbird planned a mini tour - So I guess this is part 1

4am the alarm went off camping gear in the car, phone ringing I guess its time for a two day adventure! travelling 1373 miles in two days and camping in the most underestimated weather whos stupid idea was this? ... oh yeah mine. Lets begin!

Cunningplan dropped this little place upon me awhile back, he said I may like it and I rather did despite its missing floors! (cheers for the heads up ;) ) rumour has it the married couple who lived here, refuse some-sort of divorce proceedings therefore the house now lays abandoned, and he/she doesnt want the other to have it.
Its decay is happening fast, yet small attempts or maybe in the past some attempts where made to restore the home, yet now seems the locals have wind of the place and have trashed it, downstairs is pitch black with the boarded up windows, so despite my best efforts, hardly any from downstairs but enough, upstairs had plenty to snap mainly photographs and odd items, also some saucy lingerie!

I did like this location though despite it being derpy to hell was a nice start to a very very long two days!!

I should of took notice of the last scribble more seriously!

Putting up a tent in freezing cold conditions, upon a mountain near the sea was the worst idea...
I finally got to sleep clothes soaked sleeping bags soaked, snow and hail hitting the tent hard with a tonne of heavy winds, it was around 3am I decided to call it quits and sleep in the car, I was worried I may not wake up if I was to sleep again, the shivering was none stop so with the exploring buddies we slept in the car... if for only a few hours until we hit the road again!
