small shaft (60-70ft)
crawl through a slot which has about 1000 years of dead sheep ( fuckin stincks) into a small mine system that ends in a collapse.
Sounds amazing, anybody else having it? Dead sheep never hurt anyone!!!!

I hope to be able to come this Thursday to Hendre - and have invited some newbies from Mold who are new to the underworld but not at all new to rock climbing and rope work. Hendre should be a nice introduction for them. I assume bottom level is still awash?

Lids...
Having relied upon Ian (who is now out of it) for lids, I now have bought several through Ebay and I will keep them in my van for anyone to borrow. Dominic Galagher (the guy I bought most of the hats from) is joining us for the Hendre trip on Thursday.
Spar mine will be busy. Should be a good trip.
Anyone else coming to Babel shaft please let me know tomorrow at some point.
