All keys sent

All leaders have now been sent keys and trips have begun. Please be minded that there is a scaffold pole in the entrance shaft which is stored, leaning against the side - it is not fixed and has already provided mild entertainment for a caver expecting to use it as a solid hand hold. The base of the...
