Usual seepage but not gopping. It's not greasy either. Might rain a bit more later on though.

Shocking news today, the communal mats that were there have been set on fire by the end of leftwall leaving that whole are black and minging, most of the burnt remains have been removed I also brushed as much of the charcoaly shite off as I could, not bloody impressed!
I'm working all weekend but if it's cleaned up by next week I'll be going down and doing my best to clean it up..

Doylo · October 15, 2011, 07:55:20 pm

yep tommy chamings turned up to find the end of left wall and fire and managed to put it out

ducko · October 15, 2011, 08:16:46 pm

Some kids turned up while I was there and had a look at it I guessed they were the ones who did it, little fuckers.

I brushed the ashes up after helping Tommy put the fire out. A couple of points:

It's not 'shocking'. What is shocking is that local kids haven't set fire to some of the trash left in the cave before now; I would have if I was a kid hanging around there, going off my adolescent form of firestarting-for-a-laugh

The cave may be amazing to us, but it's just another scruffy little hole to 99.9% of the public. There's every chance someone could set fire to the place and destroy one of the best hard bouldering venues we have, and by leaving fucking gym mats lying around in there as if they're normal things to find outdoors we only increase the chance of it happening.

Doylo · October 15, 2011, 10:22:15 pm

It could have been a lot worse, the cave got away lightly this time. Lets sack off old pads in there

ducko · October 15, 2011, 10:48:22 pm

The litter issue has been brought up many times you can't force people to take there litter home only hope that they do it, as for the mats that goes without saying I agree not replacing them is a good idea, I guess kids dont have a whole lot to do these days but that doesn't make it ok to go and set random items on fire

petejh · October 15, 2011, 11:31:04 pm

Nobody's saying that setting shit on fire's ok. But setting shit on fire is exactly what kids do. I did it myself. Ergo leaving stuff lying around in one of our most cherished shit holes sorry bouldering caves is not a good idea gievn the unavoidable fact that kids will set fire to things. Right or wrong doesn't enter the equation.

ducko · October 16, 2011, 04:05:17 pm

Well unless they can set goat shit on fire all should be well from now on

Anyone got knowledge on the state of Rock Atrocity, Lou Ferrino and Broken Heart at the moment?

Cheers

ziggytang · October 24, 2011, 02:15:38 pm

I was there yesterday afternoon. Was ok in there, tad greasy but not bad. RA was fine, 2nd left hold and rail on Lou were wet, Broken was fine as well, shothole a tad greasy and the big hold a bit goppin'

douglas · October 24, 2011, 03:13:32 pm

Thanks pal.

Richie Crouch · October 26, 2011, 06:06:41 pm

Was fairly dry all round yesterday. Some damp patches but Lou F was fine after drying the 2nd Left hold and even the smeggy fingerjug on Broken Heart was bone.

Just needs to cool by about 5 degrees and it'd be perfect

andymarshll · November 03, 2011, 06:39:49 pm

Was in reasonable nick again today, damp patches but i couldn't see anything in there that wouldn't be do-able with some attention from a towel.

ducko · November 03, 2011, 11:57:35 pm

cave tomorrow! dont rain tonight please

Nike Air · November 04, 2011, 08:22:44 am

Has it warmed up too much for the cave today???

ducko · November 05, 2011, 04:32:27 am

Not bad today some holds felt a touch greasy but acceptable conditions a little cooler and it'll be mint!

The Sausage · November 12, 2011, 05:02:49 pm

An update from today much appreciated... thinking of driving over from Sheff tomorrow
Ta, Joe

Loz! · November 22, 2011, 05:15:01 pm

Anyone know what the Cave is like at the moment? Thinking of heading over tomorrow pm..only the stuff on the outer lip needs to be dry, as it's the only stuff I might get done!

Thanks.
Laura

Ok thanks.
If anyone actually does go by there could they have a gander.

Doylo · December 01, 2011, 06:57:36 pm

Bonnie doesn't really seep. Will only be knackered if whole cave is gopped
