• Tony is on holiday until Saturday 20th

    This means that the Travelling Shop will be out of action for a week and any inquiries sent to him won't be picked up until he's back.

    In the meantime the rest of the Starless River team will be hard at work ensuring online orders are posted out to you all. Thanks everyone.

  • Help us work out the future of the Inglesport Café

    We've been trading since 1977 and next year will be our 50th anniversary.

    The café has been part of that for a long time, running quietly in the background for years, and we don't think it always gets the credit it deserves as a genuine community hub. ⁠But we need to be straight with you: the café is under real pressure, and we’re not sure of the best path forward.....

Myself, Ruiaridh Macleod, Lydia de Brett and Joe Stell have organised a practical cave science weekend at SWCC, 2nd - 3rd March.

Saturday will feature three underground workshops, where we will go caving in OFD and look at either cave geomorphology/hydrogeology, cave biology and cave instrumentation. Saturday will have some shorter talks, and plenty of time to look at the data collected during the day and discuss project ideas and more. Sunday will be more of a loose structure, where you are welcome to attend a trip of a different theme to the previous day, or make your own adventure (caving or otherwise). We are also hoping to get the event subsidised, will update about this as soon as I can.

To sign up, fill out the following Google Form:

All cavers welcome! Sign ups will be on a first come first serve basis, so don't delay!
Hope to see many of you there!

I should also add that I will try and allocate places as evenly between clubs as I can. So if we have a preponderance of sign ups from one club, I might ask that you decide between yourselves who comes so that we don't only have people from one club :)
 
Thanks for signing up all who have already :) we're pretty much at capacity now so any further sign ups will be added to a reserve list!
