[Tim Watts]

I'm on the rig for another week yet - can someone speak to Alison in the meantime?

Mike??

[Claire Brimson]

Mike. Please call Alison Moody ASAP on the number I pm'd you.

Many thanks.

[Tim Watts]

any progress with this? We're getting closer...

[Les Williams]

Do you want me to speak with Ali?

[Tim Watts]

i guess so if you wouldn't mind. I've never done anything mendips wise - except felt the impact of a big tree!

Does mike know the entrances / routes etc or can we pester some mendips peeps to meet and greet us and show us some holes in the ground??, and of course drink beer with us?

I have zero knowledge - don't know about any access req. don't have a guidebook, nuffin.

[Les Williams]

I intend to be around that wekend, I need to drink beer with the Cap'n and you...

I 'spose I ought to get underground as well...
I might know a bit about access stuff on Mendip 'cos I am actually the Access officer for CSCC... :evil:

[Tim Watts]

this trips suddenly sounding awesome :-) I'll be there whatever, even if i'm on my own! lol

Looks to be a good group though :-)

I'VE COMBINED THE MESS OF MENDIPS THREADS, PEOPLE CANCELLING AND CHANGING DATES ETC AND RE-ORGANISED INTO THIS NEW THREAD. I'VE TAKEN A BEST GUESS AT WHO I THINK IS COMING ON THIS WEEKEND

PLEASE CAN YOU CHECK YOU NAMES APPEARS (OR NOT) IN THE VERY FIRST POST OF THIS THREAD?

THANKING YOU!!

[Dean Wood]

If the trips a go im deffo up for it ! Road beers for the trip down will be in order ! Haha oh and can i borrow that loverly 2 piece wet suit again :p

[Joel Colk]

Tim, will you be going down the M6?  :kiss:

Not sure about the Vicki situation yet, if it's predominantly SRT then it will be a no from her, but i can still go  :cheer:

[Tim Watts]

Was going to head cross country - landy does 65ish on motorway - so shorter A road routes tend to pay off quicker. So likely to head to wrexham and then head south.

Space to leave your car at my house for the weekend though.

I think it might well be aimed at SRT - i'm not sure as i've never been! Mike? Les? perhaps you can advise a little more detail of what can be expected???

[Les Williams]

Very little SRT on Mendip but if people really want some it can be arranged...
I myself have no intention of doing an SRT trip here...

Mostly stream caves, swallet systems, so usual stuff a bit like Hesp Alyn and Poachers but with much less mud...
...and the largest chamber in Britain of course.  :evil:

[Ali Wiseman]

[strike]Provisionally, can I pinch a space. Dates are in my week off, but I need to consult SWMBO about her plans.
I will need a space on the bus too. Is a pickup in Wrexham near the 483?[/strike]

Scratch that... I have been told that I have to go to a bloody wedding instead...

[Tim Watts]

Mr Leahy also has a wedding now :-( And I'm not gonna start trying to juggle dates again or its never going to happen so we'll just have to manage without looking at his pretty face all weekend.

Joel - looks like no SRT so i'd therefore assume it to be a good trip for Vikki. Would be good if you could both come. :-)

Peeps - bearing in mind 'no' SRT that probably opens it up to more people - so let me know coz there is still space in the bus!

[John Oh]

I am interested in this trip, and free from September.
