seem to remember a programme on daytime tv (was poorly at the time and I'm sticking to that excuse) Isn't there the complete remains of one in Cuba ? The TV programme was Abandoned engineering I think? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidio_ModeloFascinating series of programs. Well worth a watch.

Fascinating series of programs. Well worth a watch. even if you do have to indulge in daytime TV ...... and get all the adverts aimed at wrinklies (funeral plans/stair lifts/life insurance to pay for your funeral/will writing special offers/travel insurance for those with "previous conditions etc etc)

I love that abandoned engineering.... I do watch that in the evenings
I wonder if thats the idea behind the old nightingale style wards where we used to sit at a table in the middle at night and all the beds n patients surrounded us..one nurse either side of a table. Theoretically I guess we could see everyone...well until the cutbacks reduced staff to just one and that one used to snooze occasionally....

Must say I do find the different titles posted by Nick Telemachus quite amusing. "xxxx is a tosser" - TB forum "I never did like xxxx" CW forum A good chuckle was had.

Ha ha. Search 'panopticon'. Fascinating..hadn't come across that before... Its an education on here at times The panopticon concept is often used as an extended metaphor to describe the increasingly restricted reality of the modern world.

Even in churches. I expect God needs to rewind to see who exactly's thieving hand took that 50p out of the collection plate.

If Hell exists, why can't someone pop down and install some webcams?
