Top of the undercut ( yellow line ) . Looking south. Rocks below clean washed going down and along.

The hanging bedding. Best leave it for a while. Nearly 2m across.

Hmmm. That looks like a bit of a moment, poised and waiting. You need a bravestupid person.

Ahh yes. I was wondering where I saw an even worse arrangement. Now I remember.

As long as you've got a helmet on it should be OK

Mea culpa maxima.

Mea culpa maxima.

Interersting as it refers to a fault. Geological or personal I wonder.
I must admit said boulders are very rarely visited so it was an honour to be taken there. Or for whatever reason.

I reckon a swift, hard kick will settle these things down. Hope this helps.

" Five in attendance ( re photo ). It started well . Nigel drilled holes for Martin's visit. 2 x 200mm deep x 1m apart. Two more boulders removed. Then all to the deep dig. Me hauling out. The morning session progressed well with Brian and Mr Goldie making space rather than going on down. Shift change pm ; mutterings and swearings coming down the tunnel rather than a flow of capped rocks. Well out of it snoozing in the unloading bay. Ultimately no real depth gained though lots more room. The undercut going forward south and widening a bit . I could not get the camera in that end. I could see further down the wall though. Effective drilling and capping required next week with a bit more patience as basically its all going well. Everything above the ladder in Mr Trundles still very dry. Nigel, Me, Brian and Mr Goldie expressed an interest in giong next week. "

Having seen this clip, I suspect there's now multiple other people, each with a voice in their head saying "Do it, do it now!"
