Anyone going??? Apart from Tim and Sarah, and me.

Be a good club thing to go to???

Have some fun, drink real ale, get underground.  Theres a lovely mine called Findal over near Ruspidge area of the Forest.  Its a mixed mine of coal and iron into cave.  There are still really old tracks hanging on the side of tiny passages, a muddy drop down and then into cave.  There is also Bix stone DEATH mine! and many more - Graces Lane is lovely also.

Interest??????

:)

ferret - Book up tickets online here http://hidden-earth.org.uk/

Sarah (my wife) and I are going on friday and camping right through, we're working as helper staffing the event.

If possible book for the weekend and camp on site - and don't forget to book the saturday meal and 'stomp' with the live band (tickets go fast apparently!)
