Saturday 16th August 2025

John Cooper, Nigel Graham, Pete Hann, Kate Lawrence and Adrian Vanderplank. Another rather warm day but at least a bit of breeze today. Once Kate was at the bottom the bottom ladder was removed and passed over to Nigel for his strengthening straps to be fitted. Initially Kate sent up 2 frogs for rehoming. 40 loads of mud and 1 load of rocks were hauled out today. Nigel’s work on the ladder was interrupted at loads 10, 20 and 30 so he could go over the stile and empty the small buckets into the big tractor bucket. By load 30 he had finished work on the ladder so was able to help carrying the loads up the shakehole. Finally the bottom ladder was reinstalled so Kate could get out. The gap between the ladders grows larger each week! 2 hours. John.
