It gets more like " Last of The Summer Wine "each time.

Loved the enigmatic closing words . . . !

Enjoyed watching that.

It's like an underground mendipshire version of 'Last of the Summer Wine'.

There are caverns - and we think they are within 20 metres of us but at the rate we are going I think it will be a few trips before we get there!

I wondered what it was called!

Is that what you call it ? I have had to put up with Mr O'Doc now for almost sixty years.

Plan of the dig so far. As mentioned the mysterious caverns should be within 20 metres. They were found on the lode we are following in an area of hypogenic contact metamorphism. ( whatever that means ).

 

[The Old Ruminator]

The digging involves short flurries of activity seperated with long periods of sitting around consuming cake and coffee whilst listening to the relentless patter from Mr O' Doc.

 

[The Old Ruminator]

One such flurry.

 

[The Old Ruminator]

The " heavy spar " lode.

Looking out of the dug tunnel to the chamber we found recently.

 

[The Old Ruminator]

Coffee and patter.

 

[The Old Ruminator]

Getting to the dig.

 

[The Old Ruminator]

Fun, Frolics and Food.

Glad December is nearly gone.
