Vanoord has asked me to advise that he will undertake his annual underground excursion this coming Saturday.

A team of people are lined up to carry the armchair :tongue:

Any of the Thursday night regular - or indeed anybody else - feel like coming along? If for no other reason than to satisfy their own curiosity as to whether Vanoord actually exists...

Suggestions so far:

- Full day in Cwmorthin (yes, really)
- Fron Boeth / Pant Mawr (doing the top to bottom trip)
- Any other suggestions?

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

I'm out in Cwmorthin anyway on Sat so whilst I may not officially join you on the trip I'll see you around if you end up there.

I'd go for that, I don't think Van will!

What about a tunnel trip 😛

A poking around in a well-known Blaenau mine has been proposed, seconded and adopted. 1030 start.

Mostly a look at things we've looked at before - but some of the parts that people tend to charge past and if time permits, a grovel around in the deep and far-off bits. Ropes not required.
