We have had some UKC mugs made and I’ve been promised that these will last 3,500 dishwasher cycles (the last lot faded - sorry folks 😳)

If you would like a free replacement mug, please come and see us on the UKC stand.

First timer mug owners also most welcome.
Limited stocks - first come first ready for brews 😁

My original mug hasn't faded, but we've had a dishwasher less than a year, so it's spent most of its life hand-wash only.

You need a new one as old one is now doomed! See you on Saturday, I'll set one aside for you 😁
 
Sadly the home wont allow me long distance travel BUT. A good way to encourage caving is to post a nice long photo thread of the conference like wot we do for the antique fairs. Will it happen ? Umm lets see
 
I would be eternally grateful if I could possibly have a shiny new replacement for my well-loved but now sadly faded original.

I do this whenever I go to Hidden Earth or Eurospeleo 😇

 
Nice mug :) and good at holding liquid - tea is best 😂
Awaiting rope 😝
If that is the 49m Pete promised you at HE, please have patience. We are on holiday until 4th Oct, i will chase it up then, though did send info to SpanSet. They won't let you down, they are a decent company 🙂
 
Cheers folks
No rush and I wasn’t chasing , just letting you know I was here :)
Have a good holiday …
Cheers

At Hidden Earth l blagged from you two of the much sought after and highly prized UK Caving.com mugs for two aspiring young cavers. ie Finn, Grandson of the world famous Caver Keith and Abigail my Granddaughter. As you can see from their smiles your generosity was greatly appreciated.

Anyone interested can follow their activities by going to Carver Keith's Youtube channel, (don't forget to subscribe if you haven't already) where you can see their latest trip "In search of the Dragon" a scary tale set in Craig A Ffynnon, well worth a watch. "Caving, it's definitely NOT for kids" features a trip into Agen Allwedd for the pair of them, and "New to Caving, a trip into Eglwys Faen" an early trip along the same Llangattock Escarpment.

Thanks again for your encouragement of young cavers.

Ian Millward.
