The water level in OHA is surprisingly high. The first entrance crawl (usually a couple inches of sludge) has water and the first "duck" (same tube) has, around, 3 inches of air space to pass through ..... just saying because you may well pick that cave if no one pipes up. (you still can of course).

There is an old GCC dig across the way near to Nadolig - I am sure you know it ... we could have a peep there. Might not take more than 15mins though.

Peep at Devil's Gorge?

Bog mine now has a report of Bad Air at the bottom.

There are various shafts that Steve K has been asking about (we could investigate any of them).

There is a report of a "very heavy draught" at Poacher's and, upon close enquiry, it appears to be coming from the area where the "exit" was dug (near to the car park). Might be worth looking (or might not - probably would see anything from the surface).

Wedding cave mine (odd name, I know) at Bwlchgwyn (near Minera)... it's not huge but they were mining some really rare blue mineral there (now full of graffiti from 1970's raves)...

I will continue to think ....

Remember the shaft at Garreg Boeth above 621?    How far down was the SRT to the adit (I can't remember) ... ?

Devils gorge I was there this week with kids. Looks the same and mick has updated me with other activities in the area.  
I can’t remember the shafts I’ve asked about I’ve asked about so many. Perhaps you can jog my memory ?  
The search for blue mineral could be interesting.  

Are you against srt Ian. ?

Was this the legacy trip I want to organise?

I vaguely do. What does that involve again ?

Well, it involves going into the slate mine at Glyn Ceiriog ... I can't remember who was sorting it out :P

This legacy trip will continue soon.

Also the fish mine sounds good to me. Where does the through trip lead too ?

Can you remember what shafts I wanted to see? I’ve asked that many questions I can’t remember ?
Are they the nadolig ones ?  

And I’d also like to see if we can see some blue minerals too
