Title: 7th & 8th July (Weekend)
Post by: Tim Watts on Mar 08, 2012, 05:47 PM
Anyone fancy a weekend trip somewhere on the above dates....

Probably Friday evening 6th Travelling, returning home 8th July.

Other than the dates I've got no specifics.....

Ideas: Yorkshire, Derbyshire, Mendips?

Camping? Club hut? etc.

Maybe as a Social weekend - (i.e. for the cavers and non-cavers (partners/kids) alike? Evening BBQ?

Please discuss!

As ever, I'll take the 'bus' and trailer so first come first serve for a lift.

Yes yes and Yes.

Weekend trip in Yorkshire? Bunk house?

Or

Maybe Marty could arrange a joint trip with Darkplaces around the mines down in Wiltshire?

I'm kinda swaying towards yorkshire personally! But I'll be happy to go anywhere.

Personally I'd like to get on a expedition to the bottom of the Gouffre Berger  but I think i'd struggle to get enough UCET peeps all with enough holidays etc etc.

Gouffre Berger sounds good..... Should have done it when it was fully rigged on the french weekend awhile back though, less ropes to carry ;)

Could always check out Chezc republic - new stuff going on there and Ive contacts if needed...
