How expensive is your car? ;D

I just realised that you would be thinking of diving. If you're meaning the New Vein quarry, it would be quite a struggle I'm afraid, the nearest place would be the road up from Penmachno, which becomes only suitable for 4x4, I don't know about access rights- someone on here will surely know!

If the phone didn''t ring, it was probably me.

You could park at Manod and walk down from there it's not too far depending on how much equipment you have.

I'd ask Garry Anderson to drop me up in Thunderbird 2. Hmmm, maybe it's the long walk now ....

That would be Gerry Anderson. And if you can actually talk to him in the last few days, you're going to make a fortune.

Or some volunteers who fancy a day out with a difference? I'm sure a few folks would offer assistance if you asked nicely and gave notice?

Nice one sinker I shall bear that in mind, we are looking at going over that way for a week around Easter next year, will also bear that in mind for Cambrian when we go over again if it ever stops raining. :thumbsup: :thumbup:

Was diving Hodge last week never known the visibility so bad due to all the wash off from the rain. :thumbdown:
