After a rather faffy start on Friday, we were finally crawling past lorries on the M4 when with a sudden 'ker-clunk' our sexy Ford Transit sounded like a WWII tank. Loitering at the Reading services while waiting for the AA was not the most auspicious start to a caving weekend, but with a bit of carefully applied wire we were soon on our way! Weekend went brilliantly; we had St Cuthberts & Shatter cave leaders to take us underground, so got to see some extremely pretty formations!

ICCC Mendip meet. Saturday: St Cuthbert's Swallet, led by a friend of Ann's called Sean. Nice trip, although shorter than I expected – we were in and out within three and a half hours. The Great Gour was rather impressive.
