Hope to come to this meeting - having met Ian Adams on the Cwm Orthin Mine trip last Saturday. I fall definately in the 'Newbie' class, so not up for sumps or long rope ladders or for testing the size of tight holes - Pooh in Rabbits house. I will be comming along the A55 from Tregarth near Bangor and can pick up anyone on the way wanting a lift.  John Nicholson

Many thanks to Ian and Guy for an amazing trip through Nadolig! I am really stiff this morning after the unusual form of horizontal exercise! Great also to meet other members at the pub, and hope to come again soon. John Nicholson
