Win a copy of 'Adventures Underground'!!
- Thread starter Pegasus
- Start date
Thanks to everyone who entered 
It was hard to choose a winner however having spent hours and hours in various caves waiting for the photographer to shout 'fire', sometimes for the flashbulb to explode and give me a right fright, or hanging about on a rope when heights are not my thing, or getting colder and colder as yet again it's 'just one more shot'....Mudman's caption 'Bloody photographers' did make me laugh
So congratulations, Mudman you win the copy of Adventures Underground - enjoy
Please PM me to arrange caver post.
Once again, thanks to John Cordingley & Dave Haigh for a) writing Adventures Underground and b) giving UKC a copy If you haven't already, do buy a copy, all proceeds go to two great causes authors of new caving books should be supported.

I must say I'm seriously well chuffed.
I'm so glad you had a chuckle Pegasus but in addition to your thanks to the authors for generously providing the prize (which I second) I must also thank you and Badlad for setting up and running the competition and for keeping the forum running and such a useful resource.
Your comment about flashbulbs made me chuckle, I was sat at the end of Chasm passage in OFD2 at the weekend holding a homemade bulb firer of Huge's and a growing pile of used bulbs where the firing of each had been preceded by such things as "Damn, the flash didn't fire," "Bugger the flash shouldn't have fired then," "No, I was only asking you if your were ready" and "Aaargh, my flash fell off the rock."
I shall PM you shortly.
Thanks again.
