TRIP CANCELLED.
me please :) :). but if the weather is sunny-ish i will probably climb(of sorts :huh: :huh: )
Me "probable" :)
I'm in!
Any chance I could meet someone on the way and share a lifft :oops:
sure than can be sorted out Iestyn.
me - this trip needs someone who knows what they are doing :P
All added...
meat :
the wanted inn , sparrowpit : SK17 8ET
map : https://www.google.co.uk/maps?q=SK17+8ET
its about 1km from there to the parking spot
there is a trespass fee - so bring some change
P8 is a wet cave - it has an active stream way that runs in via the enterance - undersit / oversuit and neoprene socks are essentials - not luxuries
to quote the guide "be warned! P8 is the most popular venue for
"rescue due to high water" and "hypothermia"."
pencil me in - my grans 90th that weekend not sure if party is the sat or sun but i'll come subject to that.
tim - if she is 90 - you can send a cardboard cut out - and she wont notice the difference
come caving - you know it makes sense
I'm a maybe (pending climbing weather).
Also if I go and anyone wants a lift I am willing to drive subject to the following....
1. someone makes sure i dont drive over 85mph! 6 points in 6 months isnt looking good :(
2. i wont be stopping for drinks after as i'll have drinking to partake in that night
I am now a no show, I have been given a choice, I work this Saturday (29th june) or I work Saturday the 6th july, it was a no brainer really
I'm confirmed as a YES now! woohooo!
I'm going to have to give this a miss. I took a bit of a tumble in Pandora last night and doubt I could manage the trip :(
I assume you are alive/ok as you have posted. Could you stick a short trip report/details in the private section when you have 5 mins spare please ?
;)
Ian
Yeah, i'll be ok in a couple of days. Will stick a report up when I get home from work B)
Can you change me from "probable" to "improbable" please. I have just read about the gazillion sumps :dry:
ian - stop being a pussy :P
the sumps cannot be freedived - and the first couple only turn into ducks after prolonged dry weather - there will be no " sump action "
the navigable streamway is only knee / mid thigh deep - and thats only in short sections
You'll be telling me it is a dry walk in/walk out cave next ..... :dry:
no - i have said in the trip brief that its wet - but we will not be going in sumps - how more simply do i have to put it ?????
You haven't forgotten I have the mentallity of a 4 year old have you ? :whistle:
no go for me im affraid :( :( :(
is anyone actually coming ?
Based on the number originally added and the number now dropped out - how many are left? If there are still a few to go on this - I may come. But I may have a look at the high level route and see where that gets me :)
looking like Andy tim and vikki
but mike has said elsewhere that tim is looking down another shaft, so i'm guessing he isn't going either
I wouldn't mind backing out too if i'm honest, weather is crap and I'd like to go holiday shopping :-)
Not to mention getting drunk tonight and not having to worry about driving tomorrow :-p
Trip cancelled due to lack of interest.
wusses! I'll go in search of an alternative shaft then! :-P
WTF -
LOL @ WTF :lol: :lol: :lol:

Mike had already said you were going elsewhere Tim, that left Andy on his own.
fuck this - can people stop stelling us what they think other people are doing
and let people actually say if they are coming or not
[quote="Ian" post=18516]Well, I could get out now I am not going to P8.
Here is the weather forecast for Snowdonia;[/quote]

[quote="Iestyn999" post=18326]I'm going to have to give this a miss.[/quote]
And I cant make it my self as i'm working.
i dont know why i bother
its like this - the missus says i'm off out with the family tomorrow to festiniog railway - so that's an end to it all as far as i'm concerned :-/
Small sacrifice made for a weekend on mendip next weekend i guess.
Yes, since numbers were dwindling for P8 mike and i did mention Cae Mawr Dig as alternative for tomorrow, or climbing weather permitting.
But the missus has the upper hand even over the captain!
Andy, you know you're much appreciated fella - you're welcome to sit on a train for 4 hours with an 8 month old and a three year old - battling tantrums, baby puke and shitty nappies if you're at a loss for something to do tomorrow ;-)
I may be in the Dales tomorrow Andy if you want a trip - and maybe Sunday.
