Hi all,
We have had a family of 5 (2 adults and 3 children) ask us if we could take them underground as they are in the area for half term. They came to the Cilcain/Pantymywn shows and enjoyed our club stand and cave etc. The gentleman spoke with Tim and he has emailed the club with regards to us laying on a trip for himself and his family. They stay at a caravan in the area and are down this week for half term. There may also be others on the caravan site interested in coming but will know later in the week.
Myself and Vikki are away this Thursday so I'm looking for keen volunteers to assist taking them underground - hopefully tour guide Ian is available :). I have 3 helmets I can provide but we'll need a few more.
Trip: Hendre Spar Mine
Type: General Mooch
Meet Time: 6.45pm
Meet Place: Royal Oak pub car park (far end), Hendre.

I know we only did Spar Mine recently but this could be a great way of helping spread word about our club in the surrounding area.
Who's available?
Tony
I can be there for 7 Tony. I also have 2 spare lids but only 1 spare light.
It is very likely John N will be there with another newbie (Andrea)
We are going to need plenty of club lids with batteries charged.
Can whoever has the club lids give them a once over and fetch them,
I am happy to go but with so many new people and kids, we need several "hands on" experience people for the ladders.
Ian
and can someone phone the landlord please ?
Will be along
If you are still short by Thursday for lids I can fetch three to Hendre on the evening, just let me know.

Thanks Sledge ... we should have enough "club" lids, it's just a case of attracting the attention of the person who has them ;)
Of course, you are welcome to come :)
Ian
I have 3 lids and will arrange for them to be there. I will phone Landlord re parking.

ta la
Spoke with Rob and his Family this morining to confirm they are still coming, so he will meet you all at the Royal Oak.
Spoke with Royal Oak , and they will open the gates early for us, but if he has forgot and gates are closed then he says open them and then leave them open.
Hi folks! I had asked to come along with Bella and two newbies but unfortunately we can't come over.
We will try again another time.
By the way, we are impressed by the video of OHA Northern East Chambers. Is this beyond the Canals, or is it down one of the passages before the sand crawl?
Guess What... I'm not working... I'LL BE THERE WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Oh and need a lid, ta mucho.

It's way before then John. Instead of turning right (or rather straight on) at the hanging white telephone wire, take a left instead.

Great trip last night, really must go for a swim with Guy. :cheer:
