Sorry all, been such a busy week I've not had a chance to give any thought as to a trip tonight 😞

Next week a few regulars will be as Plas Tan y Bwlch for the Dr Michael Lewis lecture.

If anybody wants an underground trip one other evening next week - shout :)

Likewise any thoughts / requests for places to go please post them up :flowers:

Apologies for missing the last trip, work gets in the way of mine-exploring far too much these days. I really think the railways could stop for Thursday evening to let me out to play.

Although only small, Catherine and Jane consols is always worth a trip I think.

The lead mine on the other side of the hill (can't remember the name (Bwlch y Plwm?) is another one although that would be an srt trip - nice through trip though and easily done in an evening.

Probably not much underground but a walk up to the Prince of Wales slate quarry along the tramway. This is probably a summer outing due to light in the evenings.

Manganese mines on Llyn?

There are a few gold mines down this neck of the woods which is probably out of most people's reach.

I would really like to start looking at some of the mines in the Gwydyr forest. Are any of these open and/or accesible without upsetting landowners?

I definitely fancy a quick trip somewhere this Thursday if anyone else does? Any suggestions? Gwydyr Forrest? I know there is lots to see there but if anyone knows the area better than me it would speed the trip up a bit! :flowers: (time being short on an evening wander....) :thumbup:

Plas Tan y Bwlch for me too. Alternative evenings (but not Wednesdays) would depend on the availability of my excellent chauffeur πŸ˜‰
