Good excuse for not caving

National Winter Ales Festival 16th - 19th January

Grovel has already got his excuse lined up as he will be working at this festival from 12th January through to 19th. Thus he has successful avoided going caving on two consecutive weekends!

He will, however, need some help to drink the beer as there will be a large quantity on offer. If he gets through only half those available he will be taking the rest of January and most of February off recovering from liver failure in Manchester Royal Infirmary!

Anyone interested it is at the New Century Hall, Manchester. See http://www.winterales.uku.co.uk/ for many more details.

Cheers
Salute
Bottoms up

Even MORE Caving! - Mr McGarry's final fling

For the benefit of Mr Ray McGarry (before he departs to climates much colder than here) Steve Bell is trying to organise a Titan trip!
Potential dates are either Friday 4/01/08 or Wednesday 09/01/08, the former being the preferred date.

Interested parties so far have stated they want to do a down and out of Blue John/any other entrance - the implication of which is Mr Bell will be ascending the big pitch & 45M entrance pitch - detackling all alone - him and 5 tackle sacks of gear...........

URGENT HELP NEEDED

Anybody interested contact Steve direct.
