I do and I don't. They are an odd bunch, one is just under 5ft tall and the other is just over 6ft tall with the other three some where in the middle. Two of them struggled in Rods Pot.

Hmmm - doesn't come much easier than Rods Pot. Would humbly suggest you take them back there until they can manage it eithout too many problems.

Where is the White Room?

Just beyond the twin pots, instead of going down the rift you climb up, pretty sure thats the name but a correction would be nice. Went up there to take photo's of gour pools.

I most admit that Goat-Church seems like the best option at the moment. Taking into account the fitness levels, equipment requirements and past caving trips.

But thanks for your suggestions everybody.  :)
 
I am running a novice trip next month.
Our plan is:
Sat AM Goatchurch
Sat PM Sidcot Swallet (roughly opposite)

Sun Swildons - As far as the twenty with provision already made for the 'stronger' members to go on to Sump 1 if they want to.
Wet kit is essential, and can be hired for very little from Andy Sparrow's caving kit hire based in Cheddar, current prices allow someone to be fully kitted from head to toe for under a tenner including lamps and thermal socks.

The White Way

Where is the White Room?

In the white room with black curtains near the station
Blackroof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings
Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes
Dawnlight smiles on you leaving my contentment

This is the white room. By Cream, the greatest group ever, ever, ever,ever, ever, ever, ever, ever.

I'll never forget seeing Ginger Baker (when one of his Post-Cream bands "Ginger Baker's Energy" played at my old College), having to be lifted from the bar stool in the bar after drinking numerous drinks and being placed on his drum stool - still played fantastically well!

Hi Dep,

Thanks for you help.
