John Cooper, Nigel Graham, Pete Hann and Adrian Vanderplank. Pete forgot the cement buckets so the first mix was put in a poly bag inside the main hauling bucket With John lowering, Adrian guiding and Pete receiving it was lowered as far as the bottom of Father Duckmas where it was transferred to a spoil bucket which Pete and Adrian took on to the bottom. Meanwhile John returned to the surface with the empty main hauling bucket and did the second mix. He then ferried this down to the top of Pensioners’ Pot. Once the first mix was used up the spoil bucket was hauled up and the bag of cement transferred then lowered to the dig face (floor). Pete used this up and we then returned to the surface bringing out the hauling bucket, the spoil bucket (beyond its useable life) and the two empty poly bags. Still nice and dry in the shafts and a steady outward draught. 2½ hours.
