All being well Bella and I can come on Thursday. We would like to do either OHA or Nadogil. We may struggle to be at Cilcain bridge by 6.30 but will not be much later.
I now have an electron and spreaders available if people want to do OHA.

Maybe the choice should be left to the night in case we get a lot of rain and the river is high.

I can't make  it this thursday, was late for work this morning, boss will have his sulky head on for the rest of the week, i've no chance of getting out of work early

[Tim Watts]

I wouldn't mind an SRT'er to nip down susan shaft with me to have a look at the easy dig down there?

[Stephen Bailey John]

Tim mentions the Susan dig and the thread goes very quiet!!!

[Ian A]

Yes, because he has been trying to sell Susan's shaft to everyone for a long time and most of us don't associate girls names with shafts.

.... There is a possibility he is pimping something none of us want to go near   :sick:

[John Nicholson]

I will play the Susan game when I have completed the SRT course, and done some easy SRT trips and feel totally happy about it.  I am also observing the apparent lack of response to Susan requests on the board - but I assumed (may be wrongly) that our more experienced members were all busy on this case, but they don't waste their time posting messages to the board.

[Tim Watts]

you've hit the nail on the head john. Most of the normal work parties are out of action at the moment.... :-( Mikes away, Crazy and Doug aren't around and Murf prefers surface operation digs i think these days.

[Vikki Sestan]

Think I'd prefer nadolig this week

[Ian A]

99% probability that Tony is going to Nadolig

50% Possibity I will

[evan john]

Seems like Nadolig is the preferred trip - do we have a leader?

[Ian A]

I will if I am there - otherwise I expect they will all get lost like they did in the mine at the weekend  :lol:

[John Nicholson]

We did manage to get out OK - but we failed to find the trhough route. I still can't believe there is a passageway somewhere on that level that we did not find.

Nadolig it seems to be then.  Do we need a rope to do the Angels flight down the cliff?
I can't remember if Guy brought one when we did this cave last time nearly a year ago.

Not heard from Joel or Chris yet, so I don't know if they will be comming with us.  I will collect Bella from Rhostryfan at 4.00 if she is on time and we will make our way to Cilcain immediately.

[Ian A]

No rope needed  - there is already one (two maybe) in situ !

Keen to have a look at this Nadolig thing: presume it's 6.30 at Cilcain.
