Eww. We wasn’t there for that long so didn’t really have time to go exploring the other buildings.

in the rural areas people steal, slaughter and butcher livestock for a black market in meat..

its possible that mongo hippy is correct (as the site would not have been used for some years so unlikely to be still part of a canteen ) but people made use of the existing infrastructure for that purpose..

any zoologists amongst your crowd who were able to identify the bones?

makes sense – I expected (given that it wasn’t an entire skeleton) the rest of the sheep was long gone, probably ended up in kebabs all the way from Peterborough to Kettering..

LOL – appropriate screen name for that reply….

fuckin ell, really?

no, we didn’t have a clue what the bones were, could well have been sheep. the shit was pellets, like sheep shit.

didn’t have a camera either, wish i’d taken one as there were some cracking photo opportunities that weekend.

lol harmlessfeet’s getting proper zoologist on yo ass, analysing the shit an ting!!!

Apparently there was a farm over that side of the site a few hundred meters away – I think this likely has something to do with the bones…

much easier to transport dead animals than live ones after you’ve nicked em init 💡

More than likely turned into a smokey for the more cultured people sheleting in England. Sounds like the perfect place for preparing the carcass.

I remember being told some very strange stories last time I went there last year.
Lots of strange things people had apparently found. I remember someone telling me about the number 23 turning up a lot in the history of the site.
Sadly I can’t actually remember any of the details or find any of the info that was on the net about it.

Spooky though. :alien_abd :crazy_fre
