Worth checking what's in them. There's a good chance this is illegal, unless they have an environmental permit. See the Environmental Protection Act 1990, Section 33(1).

Lots of cavers are generally outdoorsy people who have a lot of wear & tear on their gear and a lot of experience fixing things. If you don't find the thread relevant to you, don't bother commenting. Do you have a better suggestion of who I might ask for such advice? Because the replies on this...

I was referring to the birds in question... not Jackdaws!

I don't have any sort of gun so this might not work for me :/ unfortunately I also don't think I'd have any idea how to use one even if I did possess one! It's a shame the national curriculum spent considerable hours teaching me what different drugs looked like and zero hours teaching me useful...

Unfortunately lots of people in the Dales kill them (yes, it's illegal, but these sorts of people think the law doesn't apply to them). Best to keep these things on the DL. Hopefully none of those monsters people are on UKC!

Question as above. For my approach shoes mainly

Oops... that could be partially my fault 😂 you shouldn't have told me about it! Although I can say that the Sacla humous is extremely good too - but the portion sizes aren't as great!

Hi all, I'm hoping to collate a list of expeditions led by student caving clubs for Descent. Specifically expeds that are happening this summer. I know CUCC expo is happening, not sure if Imperial slovenia is going ahead, and if SUSS have one happening again? If anyone knows any info on this...

very organised!

do you know why they were confiscated? And why the checked in one was alright? I've always thought batteries had to go in hand luggage

I was writing a dissertation about caves, so maybe it's a semi-valid excuse 🤷‍♀️

Looks a bit like the Yordas waterfall

I've had similar experiences next door unfortunately. There's one particular employee that makes a smashing flat white but when they're not in I always opt for tea. Sounds like Bernie's is going to have better veggie/vegan options too, so that's a big plus. I hope they have comfier seats as...

Please don't give him any more ideas.

I've had to start sleeping with an eye mask at winch meet, purely because I had a few too many situations waking up horrified and seeing the shadow of a slug on the inner tent above my face... now I choose to remain oblivious

I do have a really quite bad phobia of slugs, so I wish you hadn't said this. I'll be sure to triple check the entrance next time! Stile is best enjoyed on the way down in my opinion. Last time I only got up it by standing on my companion's shoulders, and then my companion had no one's...

Juniper gulf?

Well in that case, thank you! It remains my favourite GG entrance, although Corky's comes a close second, with OBJ and Disappointment following jointly in third place. Your hard work is much appreciated by me!

you are. Or, maybe I'm a smaller caver ;)

I never bother with small mammal (apart from once a year, when I'm ticking every entrance off at GG) because I find the flat out crawl annoying and Bar Pot is a perfectly good & easy way to avoid it. However, I suffer the crawl for the sake of Stile, because the fun of Stile makes the crawl...
