Goatchurch Cavern, 22nd January

On Sunday 22nd January I took my friend Loretta to Goatchurch Cavern, not so much for itself, but to get her ready to go to Swildon's Hole, which she particuarly wanted to visit. The weather was favourable, so the initial palaver of getting togged up passed smothly, then we made our way to the cave and went in, lights off. It was a pretty stright forward trip via the Giants Staircase, Drunkard's Gallery, then down the Pixie Steps to the Dining Chamber, then via the rift to the Boulder Chamber, where we ran out of time, and headed back to the surface for a warming cup of hot chocolate and a bowl of cheesy chips at the Burrington Inn.
