Sigh! What happened to my proposed plan to get to the Dales early (possibly
even the night before) and doing a PROPER trip Manchester Bypass / Mancunion
way? Plenty of room for all there :-)

OK, OK, I guess some might struggle with all that crawling nowdays. So I
guess I'll meet you in Bernies as suggested for an early afternoon start.
Possible options:
Something jolly in Kingsdale (Swinsto pull through, Heron Pot).
Easegill classic through trip (Lancaster - County via Manchester Bypass
perhaps - I could rig County during the week for you)
Interesting tours of Easegill (County Pot, Trident, Wretched Rabbit, New
Spiral Stairs route)
Link Pot (guided tour of interesting corners, I might even leave the
surveying kit at home!)

The sooner you're up and breakfasted the sooner you can get the squalid
caving over and the sooner you'll be back to start the heavy drinking
session before the meal.

Anyone in the Dales on Friday night is welcome to come drinking in Settle
and stop at our house to get a flying start on Saturday morning.

Sam.
