was just asking if this is the real martin zero, the martyzero poster, by the sewer outfall on the medlock? I think you are the long haired younger fellow he explores with? Lots I would share by PM if you both like culverts/drains, and I am quite an authoritative source on the history, believe me...

I appreciate the offer but I have done plenty of research for places myself

 

[pastybap]

fair enough, no worries, was just looking to collab, will leave it there.

The area with the ladder looks like a DC metro station 😄

Eager to show some interesting stuff in Blackburn areas, if interested?! PM??

Cheers 👍

Loved all the photos but especially the chambers shot, different strokes etc. Great report, thanks

Nice to see Slim Pickings show up on here again.
I remember spotting this one on an old North West Water map back in 2014 and subsequently taking a butchers at it with @concreteJungle soon after to see just how good it was.
Your photos have come out well and the pics of the extra bits are a good addition to the report.
Wouldn't mind a revisit sometime but 10+ years of beers and takeaways might make access a little tighter.

Cheers! Yeah what an amazing find, you would have never thought something so sophisticated would have been here when you first checked it I bet. Hahaha yeah whole meaning for the name Slim Pickings, you dont realise what it means till you go
