    An informative discussion

    Recently there was long thread about the BCA. I can now post possible answers to some of the questions, such as "Why is the BCA still raising membership prices when there is a significant amount still left in its coffers?"

... no, I couldn't believe it either.  But someone has indeed been poetically inspired - by Goatchurch.

My favourite bit was after a respectful moment of silence followed an underground poetry reading, the presenter said "right, shall we go to the pub, then?"

Who found a dead pro in a cave ----

But think of the money he saved."

There was a young man called Dave,
Who found a dead pro in a cave,
He thought I'll have that,
So took it with hat,
But left the old caver to his grave.

Apparently Radio 3 got in an earlier plug for Sean Borodale's book in 'What Lies Beneath; Neanderthal Cave Art to Fatbergs' -

And the cover picture for 'Asylum' -

There was an old caver called Dave
Took his Roy Fellows lamp to the grave,
Where the Devil cried, "No!
Up to Heaven you go!
That light is too bright for my cave!"
