Exploring the dilapidated ruins of civilisation, abandoned buildings, creepy theme parks, military bases, and underground vaults containing the remnants of a by gone era. And with a bit of comedy and humour chucked in there too, can't be too serious about these things.
We're not serious urban explorers, we just love the adventure.
Urban Exploration is not for kiddies. Abandoned places are dangerous. Adventures are fun.

Crossrail Archaeology: Liverpool Street dig reaches Roman levels
In this video Crossrail's lead archaeologist Jay Carver gives an overview of the intriguing finds unearthed so far, as the Liverpool Street excavation reaches the levels of Roman London.
Crossrail is undertaking a large-scale excavation at Liverpool Street. Archaeologists are working to unearth up to 3,000 skeletons from the Post-Medieval Bedlam burial ground and parts of the Roman suburbs.
There are 2,000 years of history buried beneath the site of Crossrail's Liverpool Street station, including the foundations of Broad Street railway station; the former Bedlam burial ground; Moorfields marsh; a Roman road and the Walbrook, one of London’s lost rivers.

New archaeological treasure uncovered near Colosseum of Rome
August 2, 2011. (Romereports.com) One by one, day after day, these workers are uncovering a true piece of art. It's an ancient mosaic that's about 2,000 years old. For now, it's mostly covered in dirt, dust and soil.
Simonetta Serra
Archaeologist
It's unique because we are in 2011, and finding something like this in a town like Rome that has been excavated and researched at least since the 15th century. It's a great discovery, that's why it's unique.
The wall is just a few feet away from the Colosseum. Experts believe it was part of a tunnel built to support Trajan's Baths, which was a type of recreational or social center where the upper class would discuss art and listen to music around the year 109 A.D. The wall itself includes an image of Apollo, the Greek god.
Simonetta Serra
Archaeologist
It's covered with a beautiful mosaic representing Apollo and the Muses and philosophers and it's in an exceptional state of preservation.
Dino Gasperini
Cultural Assessor of Rome
This restores the dignity of this site and so many others in Rome. Every day, the city gives us a new archeological gift. We've returned its merit by restoring it into what it was built for.
The mosaic was first discovered in 1998, when it was used as a type of warehouse or tool shed. But it took years to study the sturdiness of the wall, not to mention setting up camp inside the site itself. Now, the wall that runs almost 7 feet high and 53 feet wide is finally being uncovered, stone by stone, one brush at a time.
Simonetta Serra
Archaeologist
After we uncovered the mosaic, we need to fix it, to restore it, to clean it, to fix the parts that may fall.
But the process is far from over. Experts believe the wall itself is even longer. It could stretch even 26 more feet in height. But getting there isn't easy. The city predicts it needs nearly $1 million dollars to finish the excavation. There could be even more mosaics in the area. In the meantime, the city is considering if, when and how it can be open to the general public.

Sunset from Brough Haven, Humber Estuary UK 10x speed
A great place to watch the sunset if you're visiting Hull and perhaps catch sight of some river traffic, yachts from The Humber Yawl Club, Herons, Egrets, Hen or Marsh Harriers, Hobbies, Merlins, ducks, waders, Curlew etc. Brough was known as Petruaria or Petuaria or Petuaria Parisorum in Roman times and was an important Roman settlement where, at certain stages of certain tides, the Humber Estuary could be crossed without ships or boats. Roman mosaics were found nearby

National treasure, National Express celebrates 40 years
They've carried millions of us around the UK since 1972 and 40 years on National Express is still going strong -- so what are your memories of the iconic coach service?
Many of us have fond memories of taking a National Express coach as an excited child on a trip to the seaside, a student to our first day at Uni, as proud grandparents to visit our grandchildren for the first time, or an overnighter to meet the love of our life, some of us even met the love of our life while sitting next to them on a long coach trip!
And now this British institution, having carried generations of Brits the length and breadth of the country for holidays, day trips and visits to family and friends is celebrating 40 years of service to the British public.
The 'National' coach service was launched in 1972 with around 300 coaches in operation across the UK, and more than 13 million passenger journeys taken. But more than half of the network only operated on weekends and almost a quarter were only seasonal.
The most popular destinations back in the early 70s were London, Blackpool and Bournemouth and you could buy a tea and sandwich from the on board hostess. But coaches back then were uncomfortable for long distances and lack of climate control meant it could be very hot or extremely cold. Many of us will also remember having to hang on to the nearest town or village as there were no toilets on board!
Not that we cared -- millions of us relied on the National Express to get us around the nation and these journeys were much loved and looked forward to by British holidaymakers and day trippers alike.
Now, 40 years on, National Express coaches have travelled over 2 billion miles and despite improved train networks and domestic flights, us Brits still love a good coach trip, in fact we make more in 2012 than we did in 1972, with 17 million journeys now made every year.
London and Bournemouth are still two of the most popular destinations, but Bristol and Birmingham have dislodged Blackpool and Great Yarmouth from the top four. While back in '72 customers bought their tickets at bus stations, now half of sales are online, prices are still low though with fares starting from £4.
So as we celebrate 40 years of National Express, what are you memories of the iconic coach service?
