Would anyone be up for doing a srt trip to Tomas Evans shaft or lot shaft it is a srt trip
Tomas Evans is about 130 ft in total with a fairly large cavern in it
And I don’t know about lot shaft I’ve only been about 20ft in the person I went with bottled it
I don’t think anyone has been to lot for a good while same with Tomas Evans shaft
Plenty of members haven't been in .....
Not a bad idea :whistle:
Tomas Evans is good if people have just passed there srt
I'd be interested, when would you be thinking for this? I've not been.

Hi loz
As your not a member of the club I think its inappropriate for you to organise trips .
I’m only asking if anyone would be interested in checking these out with me I have ropes long enough
And unlike most of the club I’m not working so at the moment money is tight an I want to help sumone who is actually a friend before I rejoin the club if I do rejoin
I’ve not found the club all that welcoming expect a few members who have been brilliant
No harm in throwing ideas about
Tom when ever your up for it
This isn’t a ucet trip just a bunch of cavers going do summit new or different
any progress on this - i has not bean - so up for a new trip
I think Loz has organised the trip outside of the club Andy....
Perhaps we could organise a trip too?
May be on a weekend day?
It would need someone with contact with the house owner to give us the nod - the entrance is (literally) on their driveway.
;)

Not sure it is Mr A.
If I remember rightly it's a bit of a wooded area, right along side a tree

Well .... which shaft was located immediately on someone's driveway - manhole cover and a right arse to squeeze through?
:dry:
Ian
Lot farm?
This house Ian, not lot farm sorry
No, it's not that Adam ..... it was a normal road of houses with a driveway to the right of the house (as you look at the house) and the manhole was pretty much in the middle .....
Not got a clue then lol
any attempted trip is not going to get very far - if no one knows where the entrance is
Lot farm field by farm
Thomas evans by sewage works
I can get access to all of the shafts in eryrys due to me being a local
I also know where they all are and have already asked for access to the one Ian talked about
If anyone would like me to go and ask for access I will happily do that
I have not been able to get a trip going even thou there has been enough interest and access is sorted out
The photo added is the one Ian is talking
I also have the keys to Tomas Evans
Went down the one on the drive a few years ago with Tony s/Holly and Tim.
We rigged it off the tow bar on Tim's landy

FFS - we can do better than that - if its so open and accessible
Have you done lot shaft that needs sumone with more experience than me to make sure it’s safe as the packing wall looks a bit like it’s going to fall down blocking the square portal
ok - as i know knothing about these holes :
are they within the scope of a thursday nigh trip ?????????????? time // effort etc etc ?????????
if yes - can we have next availiable thursday ???? [ subject to permissions being obtained ]
if no - a weekend date ???
If sumone wants me to go An Knock on doors to see if ucet can do trips I will do and if anyone wants to do Tomas Evans I will bring my key to get you in
And leave you all to it
yes to all above :)
just need a date and victim list
I will go around an knock on doors then and leave the rest to you as I’m not part of the club if somebody wants to post me a ucet access forms to hand in my address should be on the forum sumwhere other than tht I will be back intouch ASAP
Hi Loz,
Thank you very much for offering to knock on the door.
We have an Access officer and it is their job to do this, there are implications of course (insurance, waivers blah blah) and as much as I (and I am certain) other members of UCET understand it is very kind of you to do so, I have to decline your offer (as Sec).
I will ask our Access officer to have a peep at this and, if you don't mind, I can suggest he liaises with you.
Fanks!

No problem at all I just thought being local might of been easier but I’m happy to help you lot out anyways
Ps Tomas Evans doesn’t need to be asked access for I have the key so just give me a shout when you want it I’m only up the road from the shaft so can come open an lock up after your done
