Hi peeps.

Here is this week’s trip.

Trip: Pearl Shaft

ucet.org.uk/~ucet9504/index.php/forum/6-...mountain-pearl-shaft

Trip Type: General mooch. Entrance via ladder and a bit of crawling!

Meet Point: Road right next the Cemex/Rhes y Cae quarry, I'd recommend driving to the bottom of the lane, turning round then parking.

Google Maps: 53.241095,-3.221807

goo.gl/maps/6Jg3q

Meet Time: 6.45pm

Notes: Knee pads a good idea in here.

I won't be underground but will see you in the pub later on.

Tony

Re Spar mine.

Would it be 'in order' to bring my 2.

Nia's been before but I reckon Olly would like the trip?

Won't be offended if its a no.

No problem Frank .... do they have Lids ?

....Might go to the Spar mine myself instead of Pearl shaft .... might just cause Mike and Holly to do the Spar instead ....  :whistle:  :whistle:  :whistle:

I know but when your driving 30 mph on the A55 due to zero vision, it's pretty darn scary  :S

Yes Ian. When it snows heavily visibility gets more difficult. Perhaps you could ask your chauffeur about it! Lololol :-)

Depends on where you measure from. If from the windscreen then zero is accurate, however if measuring from the eyeball then it's depending on distance to your windscreen 1-3 ft visability ;)
