Just a heads up for peoplw who do not see UK Caving.

See the post at the bottom.>:(

I would take most of what was written in that great long rant with a large pinch of salt.

If I was the landowner, I would go and plug it.

What a load of silly children?

The land owner is Avon Wildlife Trust

I can't believe that they will be happy when they see the "reports" of Bats being disturbed.

I seem to recognise the literary style of "Disgusted from Cornwall" who posted a rant a couple of hours ago on this UKC thread.

Agreed, and the best read I have had for ages. I was having a pretty miserable Chrismas until this.
I wonder if he speaks at dinner events.

Well that's 1/2 an hour of my life I won't get back!!

What a silly squabble!

Better to regret something you have done - than to regret something you have not done.

A video has appeared showing the party and the burning cross.
Have a look and see if anyone can be identified.

Warning swearing content as expected from these people.
Try to right click and save the video as I suspect that it will soon dissapear.:curse:

Except it doesn't show the cross actually burning. Are you sure this isn't just a wind up?

So YOU are defending them!
There are also postings of a car full of rubbish, broken glass and **** taken out after this event.

No I am not defending them. I am merely pointing out that the video doesn't show what you said it did.

The biggest problem with what's going on at Brown's at the moment is that there are accusations flying left, right and centre. If everyone could just calm down then maybe, just maybe a way forward could be found.

I have just been giving this more thought.

Look all, the party is over, the rubbish has been cleared, and no real harm that we know off done to the mine.
By debating it we are keeping the pot simmering, so why not just let it rest?

Because some people like to bicker and argue and others (me) like to sit back and enjoy the fireworks 🙂

The secret of making a really good fire is to poke it occasionally and then let it burn itself out. 😃
