There is a potential trip down ODB in Minera but this is yet to be confirmed.

If the trip goes ahead then the numbers will be limited to six and you will need your green card to enter. The intention is to go to the dig which is tight in places

We need another trip in the event that this is cancelled or numbers are high so please express an interest here.

[Dylan Roberts]

Put my name down

[Joel Colk]

I'm coming with a newbie, and she would like to see a cave, but she hasn't got a green card (neither have i for that matter, as mike still has mine too :whistle: )

Can another trip be laid on please? I'd happy to lead a trip into poachers, for anyone who is interested.

[Dylan Roberts]

Scotty is asking if he can put his name down for this trip.

[Tim Watts]

I should home in time on thursday all being well. That said I was down to the dig in ODB not very long ago so if others are desperate for places (who perhaps haen't been before?) then i'd be happy enough to give up my place and do something else.

[Frank Hill]

How tight is tight?

[mike leahy]

guy and i are going down north henblas for a dig anyone welcome (tim)

scotty is ok for odb but if you hav'nt got your green card you wont get in

[scott johnson]

I can't find ODB Minera on the 'Knowledge base' so I don't know what it is like.  I have seen the You Tube film about Minera recorded October 2008, and it looks nice with a white glacier of minerals. But I'm not sure if this is the same hole. I'm not so keen on tight bits, but can manage an electron ladder to get in.

id be interested in a trip to poachers.

[John Nicholson]

If I am coming from Bangor with Joel and Newbie, then I am happy to do Poachers again. I also need to meet up with Tim Watts so it would be great if he can lead us through Poachers.  Ladder needed?

What does ODB stand for?

[Ian A]

ODB = Ogof Dydd Byraf.

It isn't in the knowledge bank John as the publication of photos is banned and no video has been made (or if it has it wasn't by any of us and we don't have any access to it).

There is an electron ladder in ODB down a squeezy bit - you would manage fine

Evan
Can you put me down provisionally, I'll confirm early Weds am if its a goer.
What time are you meeting as I need to sort a babysitter.

[John Nicholson]

Thanks for that Ian. So it is not the same as the film you did October 2008.
I'll wait till Joel confirms whether he and Newbie need a lift, and I will go wherever they decide.

If ODB requires cards and forbids photos then I assume this is a much more tightly controlled system - not like any of the others I have come to so far.

[evan john]

ODB trip - Meet at the Moors Inn Car Park at Bwlchgwyn at 18.30 and then someone will need to lead everyone down to the meet point at the Minera Quarry.

Marc will be there to meet you.  Remember to take your BCA cards or you might not get in!!!!
