I wanted to ask how the dig went last week.
I assume that this work is quite technical and the likes of me would be more of a hinderance than a help.

I may come over and keep Marty company in the pub.

I would like to do Cabin shaft, but I'm snowed under with uni work at the moment.

Could just about manage a pub trip though :)

Please could someone going to the Maeshafn dig replace the "nut" on the lid on Thursday.

The locals have been complaining that it has not been left safe and they are worried about children.

Also, there is apparently a hole for bats to get in and out - please can you ensure this is not blocked.

Thanks ;)

Ian

If people are 'bored', they could have a look at the murfs maeshafn sinkhole dig we started last year - not been there for ages and it would be interesting to see how much it has washed in on itself.

Or carry some ladders into Rhyd Alyn, or go down the the Rhyd Alyn HDL dig.

plenty to do :-)

Please see my remark above.
I would like to know more about what is happening with this dig, and whether (as was suggested before) I would be more of a nuisance then useful help.  It is a long drive over from Bangor, so need to know it will be worth comming over.  As you know, I don't enjoy comming over to Halkyn just to stand in the hail.

If you put a date on for a thursday night hdl dig, I'd be happy to assist Tim. I'm not a key holder.
Title: Re: Thurs trip 15/03/12
Post by: Tim Watts on Mar 15, 2012, 03:49 PM
I'm a keyholder - back 22nd march.

But to be honest it would make more sense to do a full day or at least an afternoon.

Are you working on Thursday 29th March? - perhaps you and I could go down to the Dig during the day and do a couple of hours and then the club trip could meet us down there later on and see the progress - think theres quite a few members who probably haven't been in there yet. ??

I'm free all day on the 29th if its good for you?
