Helloooo

[quote="Sweetie" post=30909]Hi Iain,

Welcome to the forum.  I'm more than happy to take you somewhere that doesn't involve ladders if you're free, so just chirp up when you know your availability   [/quote]



Very kind. I dislike ladders but accept their evil, like 'gastro-pubs', can't be avoided entirely.

I'm unfit due to too much desk flying.

Essentially a SRT virgin but used to climb and can still just about tell the difference between the end of a rope and something that isn't the end of a rope.

I have wellies, chest waders, old clothes including a boiler suit that will do as an oversuit initially, caving helmet, torches.

Mud, water, ladders - "keep calm and carry on" ;-)

Squeezing through small gaps - I'd make a better plug than door?

Also come fitted with a sense of humour as standard.

well I was going to stick spar mine on.

Ok, I won't make this weeks trip an official beginners trip as it looks like Iain is unsure if he can attend a trip this Thursday I'm  not going to put on a beginners trip. Rob, if Iain can make it then can you take the lead here and sort somthing?

Iain, if you cannot join a trip, we will be in the pub in the evening we usually arrive 9 and 10pm depending on where we have been postcode for pub CH8 8HE

that postcode actually drops you right in the middle of the a55.true

[Anthony Britner]

It's the one on the website

[mike leahy]

i know. it's my postcode

Bulletin board down all of yesterday?

Somewhat later than I had hoped but to save anyone hanging around I won't be able to get over to North Wales by half six today. Thanks all for the offers. Maybe next week will be doable as I'm not working so far from home ;-)

[Robin Jones]

Thanks for the update.  Hopefully see you next week.  Yes the forum was broken all day yesterday.  Keep us posted with your availability for next week, there is sometimes scope for a later meet time depending on the trip (especially if it's not the main trip and there are just a few of us)

Cheers

Hi Iain. Great to see/hear from you.

Don't believe Ian, I'm not at all hardcore! :-D

As per sweetie (rob's) last message just drop a message if you are free and he/ or someone will sort something at short notice.

Personally I'm working away for a couple of weeks so I'm a bit out of things for now.

Ohh and I assure you it was just my nephews new toy and there was no such intention.... Though now you mention it....... ;-) ;-) ,haha

Speak soon!

Righto, no work booked for Thursday afternoon so should be good to go if there is a noob suitable outing.

Can the mods also check my access to the UCET members section please?

Hi Iain this week we are in a mine with lots of ladders installing new ladders to replace dodgey ladders and to bypass an annoying squeeze.

One member is in a wet muddy crawly cave doing a survey.

Rob may take you somewhere. Otherwise see you in the pub.

Ant. You've a way with words , there isn't actually that much crawling or mud, and the majority is walking.
Currently surveying through the entrance wetness and then into the big passage just before the junction.

Apparently me and you are going to Spar Mine in Hendre Iain if you fancy it?  Can meet you at the Oak pub in Hendre between 6.45 - 7pm.  You will need old clothes, wellies and I see you have a helmet, light and sense of humour, so bring them too.  There are some ladders but they are in reasonable condition and are fixed securely.  

It will be a nice easy going trip.  Let me know if it sounds like your cuppa T  B)
