Virus Video Distraction 1- Ward 2, Ward 4, Ward C & Ward F (with special comments)
This was my first ever youtube video way back in 2008.
Crazy seeing how far technology has come. I was using fairly high end camera and video software but by today standards it looks like I filmed it using a potato.
Ward 2
I remember trying to read the plaque through the view finder. Fair to say first and last time I did that, very hard to read that way.
I wonder what happened to the plaque? Have a feeling it was crushed when the ward was demolished.
Was a great ward to explore
Ward 4
*Was the toilet paper ward. LOL some kids would have had some fun doing that. In light of the Covid 19 Toilet Paper Hording fiasco current, what a bloody waste of precious toilet paper. I currently have no toilet paper at home, wish I could have borrowed a few rolls of that before it was thrown throughout the ward. *
Ward C
You can tell I was a little green with Willow Court info back then.
I was behind Alonnah/IT building holding the video camera through a metal gate trying to get a view of Ward C, which at that time was inaccessible.
The airing yard
Was not Ward D, it was the airng yard that links Alonnah, IT and Ward C.
Ward G
Well what a creepy Ward. It was pitch black in there even during the day.
Ward F
The same as Ward G.
The RDH FILES
Love the Rob Zombie song at the credits. I forgot about that.
I miss the Royal Derwent Wards as we used to call it.
