    A decade later (!): Goatchurch The Movie

    Those trips were about as much fun as it is possible to have in Goatchurch! Bruce was an excellent person who passed away far too young.

    Red Rose - Bull Pot Farm

    Hello all, My mate and I have just arrived at the above for a 3 night stay as guests, but we can?t work out how we access the showers and changing rooms.

    Mon 10th/Tues 11th May Caving

    I?m thinking I might book a last minute Airbnb and head up North for a couple of days caving next Monday and Tuesday. Anyone at a loose end and fancy some underground company?

    Longwood Tomfoolery...

    Bit of an odd one this. I went down Longwood this evening and someone attempted to ?lock? me in. They?d jammed a piece of timber between the metal lid and concrete lip of the blockhouse in such a way as to effectively prevent opening from within. Fortunately I was able to force exit, but...

    Northern Caves 1 - Wharfedale and the North-East

    Just out of curiosity, anyone know why this volume is rare as Hen's Teeth? Were not all the volumes published in the same quantities for some reason?

    Hunter?s Hole

    Evening all. I was thinking of visiting Hunter?s Hole in the near future. Normally I?d pop by The Hunter?s Lodge Inn first and ask permission, but with the pub shut, does anyone know if this is still the procedure? Thanks in advance!

    Scurion P7 / Edelrid Ultralight combo

    I've decided to go for something different, so with a heavy heart I'm selling my Scurion P7 which has never once let me down since I bought it in 2010. I'm asking for ?150 plus postage (if required) which buys you the full setup (original aluminium battery case, short cable, lamp head, mains...

    Found in Swildon's Streamway

    One size 5 (I think) welly, in the stream just below the double pots. Black with a grey sole. We left it in the changing barn if you're sentimental.

    Priddy Green Sink - 5th March 2017

    Sunday 5th March 2017, Kev Speight and Dave Lossl Recent years have seen my caving mojo decrease in inverse proportions to my waistline. My demanding 2 year old, a career change to a sedentary job and a spectacular display of dietary intemperance all contributing to a couple of failures in...

    Warmbac Knee Pads

    Hi everyone, Does anyone else find that the new type of adjustable knee pad (single strap of 'double sided' velcro through a plastic clip) effectively stops working after not very many trips? I have a few sets which are basically useless now. It seems that the double sided velcro wears out...

    Bit of OFD help please?

    Hi all. Would someone be so kind as to post a relatively fail safe route description from top of Maypole inlet to Top Entrance please? God knows how many times I've done it in both directions, but I always end up getting bloody lost!

    New method for draught testing/location

    Yesterday I had a solo mooch around some of the more remote bits of Upper Flood Swallet with the aim of testing for the presence and strength of draughts. Long story short, I tried using kiddies bubbles and it was pretty effective, if crude. If you just want to roughly confirm the rough...

    Rope, Mouse Wee? Bin it?

    So I've had some rope stored away in bags for a few months and unpacking has revealed a certain degree of mouse activity. I've carefully checked the rope for gnawing damage, but some sections that were in the bottom of the bag have had a lovely mouse piss marinade! My first instinct is that this...

    Upper Flood Swallet - Multi Purpose Trip 6/2/16

    With much of the South West under Amber weather warnings for rainfall yesterday, the conversations in the MCG lounge were generally along the lines of, "Where are you caving today?" with the reply being something like, "Dunno, we're going to see what everyone else is up to." Before long, this...

    Helmet/Light left at SWCC 21 June

    Hi All, I'm pretty sure I left my helmet and Scurion at SWCC the weekend before last. It's a yellow Edelrid with a very careworn, black Scurion P7 mounted on it. Don't suppose anyone knows if it was found and put somewhere safe? Many thanks.

    Abandoned kit in Longwood

    Hi All, Long story short, I have become too fat to cave and had to abandon a tackle sack full of kit just the other side of the Letterbox squeeze after having 'a moment' therein. It's all (barring two of my crabs) MCG kit. If anyone is heading in there in the near future, could you please...

    Pelicase or Daren Drum for drill?

    I'm the proud new owner of a Bosch GBH24VRE drill. What should I buy to transport it in one, dry piece? (Re. Pelicases, actual model numbers/sizes would be awesome!)
