"Police said the group, including eight teenagers and three adults, became trapped in Lower Long Church cave in the Ingleton area.

Lower Long Church?
Must have left their researchers in London when they moved to Manchester...

Suspect that should be Lower Long Churn, rather than Church.

Aye.

Lower Long Churn has a reputation as a nice safe beginner's cave, but get a flood pulse through there and you have an evens chance of doing an involuntary one-way trip down Diccan....

If the weather in Yorkshire has been anything like the weather we've had on Wirral today the the adults are bunch a of idiots and the group can consider themselves lucky to get out.

Heavy rain has been forecast today for that area since at least the weekend, so I'm flabbergasted they attempted it, as it must surely have been at least threatening to rain when they entered. Bizarre people...
