That's a pretty good range! I can't claim many of them - a church, but it wasn't disused (we really shouldn't have left a WRG radio switched on during the service...), lock cottage at Chesterfield, disused airfield, play school (with toilet doors you can see over), infants school (where you have to kneel down to wash your hair under the shower), derelict factory on a BCN cleanup, exhibition marquee at the national, where you set up your own small tent inside for security), and in torrential rain I slept in the site hut at Blunder Lock on the Cotswolds. On one occasion we slept on the floor of the pub when the village hall was too full. Dave
