Railwayman's Cottage, Aug 2015

This place stinks.

A flying visit through here as one of our little group couldn't fit through the access point and I could only just squeeze myself in, the most bloody awkward and slightly embarrassing access into anywhere I've done for some time. This small bungalow was owned by someone with an obvious passion for railways (why else would you choose to live next to a level crossing?) as well as keeping fish and lizards, which is where the stink comes in...

Didn't spend long in here at all because of the aforementioned stink and Landie Man stranded outside, it's a shame the model railway layout has been buried under all sorts of crap.

All shot handheld on my 30mm lens as I couldn't be arsed to change back to my wide angle after finishing at the care home before this.

Thanks for looking, more here https://www.flickr.com/photos/mookie427/sets/72157654719507733

I reckon that fish tank might be one of the reasons it stinks so much, lots of little bits here though. Different from what you usually post too.

That room put hairs on my eyeballs. I dread to think what was inside those tanks.

I can only imagine, my mate used to have a fish tank, she never cleaned it. It made me reach.

It might stink... But it looks great

I can still smell it now! I don't think I spent more than fifteen minutes in here it was that stinky. Not helped of course by the summer heat!

You've captured someones former passions and that sort of thing always makes me step out and wonder who they were and where are they now knowing they would never willing leave them clearly long since gone.

Maybe one day some one will be routing around all our old bits and bobs and they realize we were one of them in years gone by lol
