Hey all

New to the forum

I've had some past experience with caves here n there but I am by no means an expert

I'm very interested in pursuing caving and I assume I'm in the right place for it?

Is there anything special I need to do to become a member?  B)

Hi thanks for joining the forum.
You can come on a few trip before joining to see if you like it first if you want and the only thing you need is a sense of humour  ;).
We cave every Thursday night so if you can make any night just let me know and I'll put a trip on for you.
