They didn't make ANY mention of those infinitely more dangerous hobbies! How puzzling, it's like it's totally one sided and skewed! Maze, as for my site drawing the heat: well, I don't know of any other big, well recognised Scottish UE sites, except maybe Hidden Glasgow: which is more a forum than anything else ?? But yes, they are playing it out like The System was wholly responsible for 'Creeping' - totally wrong, wrong WRONG!!! Chris... We all had ostriches. My dad had an ostrich farm!

TurboZutek  King Dick Location: Scotland Gender: Male Giant octo-penised rapephant  |  |  |  Re: Most Retarded Newspaper Article on UE Ever? <Reply # 98 on 5/15/2006 10:40 AM >   Sent to the Wishaw Press today: Dear Sir/Madam, I read with interest your article "Risking injury for craze" published here: http://iclanarkshi...aze-name_page.html I am the webmaster (site admin) for the site you link in the article, www.turbozutek.f2s.com I am writing to you just to point out a few things about the article and to help you gain a better understanding of the hobby of Urban Exploration. While I liked the article and found it to be level and sensible in it's journalistic style, I did find a few errors which I feel I should point out; 1. The term for our Hobby is 'Urban Exploration', not creeping. Urban Exploration is the study and photography of abandoned and hard to access places. 2. UE isn't a new 'craze' as you claim, with the hobby going back to the 1930's in the UK. A book on the subject 'The Country House Snooper' was written by John Harris during the war and released just after. 3. You mention the phrase 'break into' - this is an exceptionally inacurate way to describe our hobby. When you 'break in' somewhere you are a vandal and a criminal. An Urban Explorer will NEVER 'break in' anywhere and access is always via an already open entrance, in compliance with the law. Breaking in is illegal and gives our hobby a bad name! As a for instance (and to address the local examples you sited) - Law Hospital has many, many open doors (even more since the Police used the place for riot training!) and HartWood also had several walk-in entrances. The Kilt pub was just left to ruin with every window smashed and hanging open - access to all these locations was no harder than turning up and walking in. 4. Yes, what your Police spokesperson says does indeed make good sense, but place it in context for a moment; How difficult is it to rescue a stuck mountain climber? How much does that cost? Do the police advise against mountain climbing? No. How risky is trail biking? How risky is rappelling or hand-gliding? Do the police have an opinion on these activities? Further placing our hobby in context: in five years no one I've been involved with in UE has suffered more than scraped knuckles or some bruises as a result of our hobby. UE is NOT an 'extreme sport' and it's only as dangerous as a lack of common sense makes it; but the same can apply to everything in daily life, not just UE. Aside from all this, I would like to thank you for not stealing photographs from my site and printing them (as the News Of The World decided to) and would invite you to contact me for any further information or assistance I can give with matters relating to UE, if I can be of help in any way. Yours Sincerely, (Site Admin www.turbozutek.f2s.com) Just to point out the wee mistakes they made. Chris... We all had ostriches. My dad had an ostrich farm! I remember one day someone came in and said the high altitude bombing of Kosovo had been a limited success, so we all went out and celebrated… by killing an ostrich and boiling it in kiwi fruit. maZe  Location: Montreal/Moncton/Ottawa Gender: Female "All the world's a stage and most of us are desperately unrehearsed" - Sean O'Casey  |  |  |  Re: Most Retarded Newspaper Article on UE Ever? <Reply # 99 on 5/15/2006 2:26 PM >   Excellent letter!
