Saturday 6th September 2025

John Cooper, Nigel Graham, Pete Hann, Kate Lawrence, Adrian Vanderplank and Jude Vanderplank. Cooler, 22°C, and a breeze today but still sunny so warm working on surface. Once bottom ladder installed John went down and spent 15 minutes with crowbar prying loose rocks off the wall. He then came up and Adrian and Pete went down with capping kit. Bottom ladder then removed and buckets of rocks were hauled up. After a while cement was sent down for Pete to use walling whilst Adrian continued capping. Some rather large rocks were found. Kate went and found a large sledge-hammer. One mix of cement split over two buckets used , 23 loads of rock and 1 load of mud hauled out. Still loads of rock to come out. Bottom ladder reinstalled to let Adrian and Pete exit. 3 hours. John.
