Hi James

Welcome to the site :)

There's a fair few of us on here from around North Wales. Just chuck some dates around and I'm sure you'll have a willing volunteer for a guide in no time :thumbsup:

my orders are to sit here and watch the world go by

I can do most days with a bit of warning.

Hi,
thanks for your kind responses...the dates would be either Saturday 19th January, or Saturday 26th January. There would also be about 4 friends as well.
Thanks

Ello Camelman :)

Just to get you started, here's a list of stuff you might need: http://www.aditnow.co.uk/community/viewtopic.aspx?t=442

Bear in mind this is a guide for 'best practice' and that it's not a list of musts for someone's first underground trip, but it's generally best to have enough light to get through a trip!

Hello again darkness, my old friend...

I'd be more than happy to do the 19th, and I'm sure some of the regulars on here would be as well. PM me if you need any more info.

Oh, and don't be too put off my Vanoord's epic kit list. Lid, decent lamp and backup, wellies and gloves is sufficient 🙂

What..heh......Im skiing.... 😎
I don't know what it is, but someone (after a previous cwm trip) thinks my name is Simon 😮

May the fleas of a thousand camels infest the crotch of the person who
screws up your day and may their arms be too short to scratch.
