Tuesday 11th February 2025

John Cooper, Alison Moody, Adrian Vanderplank and Jude Vanderplank. Ali’s first time down so a short trip to the bottom and back. Wetter than last week, with standing water puddles close to the entrance. John stayed at the top of the final shaft but the rest went for a look/shower. A couple of inches of washed in gravel covering the capping mat at the bottom. 1 hour. John.

Tuesday 4th February 2025

John Cooper, Kate Lawrence, Wayne Starsmore, Adrian Vanderplank and Jude Vanderplank. Spoil clearance session. Started by moving the spoil from the top of Father Duckmas shaft to the Tunnel. Moved on up and shifted the spoil to the bottom of the entrance shaft. Finally 10 rather heavier loads moved on up to the surface. Still drippy. 1½ hours. John.
