If there is a huge dump truck involved, count me in for that part.  I don't do drains / culverts.

To quote her indoors "that's where rats and moles live, people live above ground"

Is she aware of the fact that you go caving

[Danny Sutton]

I've done loads of drains and i can honestly say i've never seen a single rat.

i spotted one in a culvert in bolton, and several hundreds if not thousends in an old rice mill in Liverpool, it was rank, never seen so many rats in one place in my life.

 ye ye ye just because you were in LIVERPOOL does'nt mean you can refere to them as rats  :angry:  :angry:

Ant89 - I didn't realise someone had done the whole thing, or near as damnit, there's more downstream he didn't get. Nevertheless, I'm still doing it.

Sweetie - No rats. I've done a bit of it, and walk past it twice a day, never seen one. Bollock deep water and rails are about all You need to worry about.

Tim - It will be midweek, a wednesday or thursday most likely. There's also scope for a spot of SRT/climbing practice at my local playground or somewhere like trevor rocks.

[Danny Sutton]

lol, Honestly, we walked into the workshops, you could not see the floor or the benchs for rats, it was like a sea fur, they didnt even run (thank god as we were stood in the only doorway)

rotten.

[Robin Jones]

If it's in the Easter hols I'll be up for it.  I'm not too bothered about wildlife / vermin anyway

Ant89 - I usually forget to tell her I'm going caving unless I'm using her as an emergency call out  

Dan - The most rats I've ever seen in one places is when they knocked the old ASDAs down in Llandudno to build the new Parc Llandudno shopping complex.  I think 40% of the UK rat population were living there!

Oh, all the overgrown vegetation in the first picture on that 28DL thread is gone now. There's some regeneration by the WDA on a site immediately adjacent to the first culverted part of the stream (Under Brook street... it's stoopy, especially if You're over 6foot).

Oh, and the fish, I'm fairly sure, are brown trout. There's usually some ducks kicking around near St Giles too, with the occasional Heron thrown in for good measure, just to keep the trout on their toes, well, fins possibly.

[Tim Watts]

Ali. lets mske it so.

[mick murphy]

hey hew stuff you should have gone to spec savers brown trout my arse don,t you know the differance turds are the same size and colour the specules in turds are corn as it doe,s not break down and if its moving well get the fu.k out of there that radon gas can do strange things to turds.

Tesco are cheaper... Titanium frames, the works.    :whistle:

Tim, and anyone else interested, are you around Wrexham Weds or Thurs next week? Although I'm off Easter Sunday, I'd probably get shot for suggesting I go elsewhere. Assuming it's not going like he clappers (it does flood, and I sure as shit don't want to be in it when it does).

I will need to be in Wrexham for half 2ish though, I have to pick the Daughter up from School.
