Saturday 22nd February 2025

John Cooper, Nigel Graham, Pete Hann, Kate Lawrence and Adrian Vanderplank. Finally warming up, even if not dry yet. Initially Adrian at the bottom with capping kit to remove the bulges on the wall that intefere with dragging spoil along to the bottom of the shaft. Once achieved Adrian came out and was replaced by Kate loading spoil, Nigel dragging it back and the rest hauling and depositing in the Kubota. Once all 12 buckets were full, 24 loads up the shaft, John, Kate and Nigel went and emptied them ready for next week. Meanwhile Adrian was sent back down with capping kit to attack a couple of boulders in the floor. This created 5 loads of rock which were hauled out before calling it a day. 2½ hours. John.
