I'm totally psyched to get spanked all day now down in the cave! Maybe we can find some V3's to project Tom  ;)

Aye, it's been such an unproductive weekend so far. Was willing to spend 48 hours hard at work but alas could not get hold of the gatekeeper for loving nor money. No cave action either today unfortunately.

Also forget to mention - thanks for the report Simon at such short notice. Was texted this morning to say trip was off as Dave (also driver) had an unforeseen family matter to attend to. Hope all's OK Dave if you happen to read this.

But Rich, at least you will have some skin on your fingers.  If you'd tried maybe half a dozen problems outside, your hands would have done their usual trick of flaying themselves. ;)

I heard it was dry yesterday, but it is quite still and muggy, so could go either way. I'll be over on the Ormes this evening, meeting up with Doylo - probably end up in the cave if it is too wet for routes.

Heavy rain is due, but so is a slight increase in wind, so probably best later on.

Cave was bone dry... if a little too warm for my liking (Like, where's the icicles man!). Jim and Dense seemed to enjoy themselves, Doylo just wandered around looking confused, unable to compute this 'bouldering lark' now that he has switched into route mode.

Perhaps this should be moved to the news section.  Moderators?

Does anyone know the condition of the cave recently? Is it dry enough for a climb tomorrow?

The top photo was taken last night - bone dry, with the odd seep.

The cave was wet today affecting the first half of left wall most of RA and Lou Ferrino and the beavers :(, split infinity was ok though.
