Tony... for a man who has achieved so much in your life..... writing a multitude of fantastic books on caving containing such a huge amount of vitally useful information it is amusing to read your post commenting on 6am.... and also nice to think of you of all the people on our cavers forum, now having the opportunity to sit and "rest on your well earned laurels".......
I for one and I am sure many others are really grateful for your substantial contribution to British caving over many years.......
Richard...
