I should be there - due home wednesday evening all being well - coming off nights - 4 weeks off :-) Going skiing for a week of that though but still lots of time to get underground.

I would like to come but will need a helmet. Also never been down an electron ladder before but willing to give it a go. If it gets too wet I won't do those bits.

David,

You will be fine on the ladder - it's 12 feet only.

The "wet bits" are unavoidable (this is caving!) - just assume you will get wet, bring a towel and spare clothes. If you avoid getting wet then all the better.



I MAY be able to come.... On my day off from work (Tues), an appointment was made for me to see a client in Chester on Thursday late afternoon - if I am back in time I will come and bring a helmet. HOWEVER, can someone else bring on in case I don't make it in time please.

Fanks !

I'll bring a spare lid and light too, they're always in back of car anyway. See you all later.

Hope the entrance isn't flooded after all this rain.

See you all later. I will be traveling up with Ant.

Hopefully it won't be flooded if it stays dry most of today. Fingers crossed!
