John Cooper, Adrian Vanderplank and Jude Vanderplank. Capping kit taken in and used by Adrian on a boulder at the bottom. Enough rock created so Pete can have a double mix of cement on Saturday. Whilst Adrian was capping Jude was above him passing stuff back and forth whilst I was above Jude in the chamber at the end of the rift. Did two trips carrying rocks from Adrian up to the base of Father Duckmas shaft and put clatch in the wall just below me. Some rocks escaped Adrian and vanished into the depths, as did a pair of safety specs. 2 hours. John.
