It's been a while since we posted some pictures, mainly due to lack of time. So when we were in Rhodes on holiday we went for a look at an abandoned Sanatorium & T.B. Clinic.

As it was Greece, there was no security, no fences, and you could park right outside (And of course the weather for October was great)

So.. Where better to self isolate than somewhere you are not supposed to be Popped in to the old HMS Ganges site today (Some history here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RNTE_Shotley )

Spent about three hours on site, still didn't cover all of it as it is a vast place, it even has tunnels that connect various areas.

Fascinating photos Andy, do you have an alibi/storyi lined up in case you get stopped and questioned by security?

Years ago, I inadvertently drove into RAF Valley through an unmanned road on its boundary and within a matter of minutes, I was swooped upon by the military police, who throughly questioned me before I was allowed to drive away.

No excuses Phil, you just tell em you are taking pictures, they are normally ok once they know you are not stealing g anything or trashing the place.

Playing with the dogs in the garden, the tennis ball went over the fence down the bank and dropped into the (Currently dry) Stream.

This was about 10 yards from my house, we have been here two years and I didn’t even know it was there.
