    As usual lads spot on! As much as I love the content and the quality of your videos, what makes it really special is the level of respect and appreciation that you have for all these great locations. Thanks

      That means a great deal! We try to show our appreciation and respect for the buildings through the content we make. Good to know that it is received well.

      Very happy that you liked your photos and this video. Seeing the books was a real shame, because items like that could be easily shared before they get ruined.

    The amount of money to restore this building would be tremendous. The bumpy floor would be structural problems or changes in the natural water level. So sad to see the grand piano and the baby grand piano rotting away. Thank you for this one. 💕🇦🇺

      No problem, it was saddening to see the piano especially.

      The “wavy” floor has nothing to do with the structure. The floor tiles are made of wood- they’ve all expanded with the ever-present moisture and the result is a bulging floor surface. In a few years the floor tiles will be rotted away and the bulges will collapse onto the subfloor. Water and gravity are the enemies of buildings.

    How could it get into such a state so quickly? How did the bumpy floor happen? How did that ceiling all collapse? Pigeon poo on all the chairs?

    Well done, lads. I just wonder if this country's trespass laws are designed to prevent you guys accessing properties like this and highlighting such criminality because it's a greater crime to abandon such beauty and allowing buildings like this to fall into such disrepair and the piano dedicated to the memory of the couple killed during ww2, buried under a pile of rubble and forgotten, well, that was just heart wrenching.

      We have definitely increased the size of our videos and they take longer to record nowadays, but we are fairly happy with the length at the moment. Would rather keep them around 15-25 minutes long but not get repetitive - thank you for the support :)

    Wasn't originally a church, wasn't a theater either, there would be to much light coming in from the dome. Could have been a concert hall or a city hall, no problem with windows with that scenario Then again all the tile work could suggest a Royal Insinuate lecture theater.Thanks.
