UCET Trip Advisor

Howdy Doody,

Here are the details for our next Thursday night trip;

Location
: Ogof Nadolig (Christmas Cave!)
Meet Place : The Sewage Works (down the lane in the link)
Meet Date : Thursday 16th December 2021
Meet Time : 6:30pm-6:45pm
Requirements : Wellies, overalls, helmet, lamp, gloves, (harness/tails optional)

Link to Parking:
https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@53.1812993,-3.2238661,3a,75y,124h,75.58t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1spGUMsswFvZW19xmKcWQiyg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en-GB

(Drive down the bridle path â€" parking is very close to the end of the lane past the farm - We DO have permission of the farm to use this road and parking)

Notes : This cave is “squeezy”. Descent is by a 10 foot maypole ladder, there is a flat out crawl of around 30 feet and a rope assisted descent down a pot of, around 15 feet at 45 degrees then 10 feet vertical. This is usually done with a “flying angel” but you can clip on with “down gear” if you want. If you are in doubt, please ask on the forum.

Suitable for novices with some experience.

If you do fancy coming, please could you let me know either by replying to this email or posting to the forum (link above). No worries if you don’t know.

Thanks !

See you soon…..

:)

I will be along for this one, especially as I still have Thomas's jacket which I appropriated after the Christmas do and I need to return it.

To be noted this will be the last official club trip of the year so don’t miss out on a good night. The week after we decided a night to socialise in the pub where we hope everyone can come and meet the other people who’ve not been out for a while or not out at all yet.
Hope to see you all Thursday
