Hey guys- has anyone got any ideas for where the eastern division should head on to for our next excursion?

Now that I have ticked Bellgrave and Cambrian off in my I-spy-book of North Eastern Welsh mines, any others are suitable!

Penarth, Moel Fferna,

Wynne is currently a no-go.

Plenty of LEad mines, but I'm only just starting to do those myself.

Is Hendre a smaller trip?

Yeah, they are a little big when considering actually getting to them takes an hour or so without going flat out.

Let me see what I can find.

Some people don't do SRT, or Cabin would be my first thought.

Cabin would be good- there are various other pitches in there, but we could make a start by just seeing whats around and going back another time equiped to go further in.

I'm not going to be out for the next couple of THursdays, due to my manager failing to comprehend "Early shift on a Thursday, Ta!"

Said failure has been duly brought to the attention of the manager, and going forward, earlier shifts should be forthcoming on Thursdays. Sadly, I still have to work the ones already rota'd in.

If you guys want to head out, feel free. If I can organise things, I'll join you, but I don't expect to be able to.
