On the subject of leaving caves rigged with ropes, we went to Aquamole Pot today to find that all the pitches were rigged, with a note at the top saying something on the lines of: ?Do not use these ropes, as they may be removed at any moment; this is not a joke?. If you ask me, the sooner they are removed the better; descending the narrow entrance pitch, rigging our own rope, was a bit of a pain; but my friend who de-rigged said that de-rigging was an absolute ball-ache because the in-situ ropes were constantly tangling with and snagging the tackle bags he was trying to pull up.
(Maybe 'Please do not use these ropes' might have left us feeling a bit less pissed off.)
