UCET Trip Advisor
Howdy Doody,
Here are the details for our next Thursday night trip (there are
three);
TRIP #1 – SRT Training
The current SRT training course is moving underground to the Spar mine this coming Thursday – if you are on the course, be sure to turn up. If you are looking for a refresher to bring yourself back up to speed (members only pls) then now is also a great time!
TRIP #2 – New SRT Challenge
Those dastardly UCET riggers have imbued the mine with a brand new, double X rated, triple scary, Bear Grylls style challenge of a new, super duper 00berly brilliant SRT challenge. Do you have the courage to take on the mighty hole of infinity and drop down into the belly of the mine? Fully SRT Competent member only cavers only on this plunge please.
TRIP #3 – Spar Mine Adventure
For those who fancy a mooch, or to watch the brave and gallant SRTers, there will be an opportunity to wander around the mine all the way to the water at the bottom and the “bridge” that harbours the lost and ancient Balrog. If you find him, you have to bang your staff hard on the ground and bellow “You shall not pass!” Only then shall you ascend to the higher ethereal planes of Spardinium.

If you do fancy coming and you need to borrow equipment (like a lid/lamp) then you MUST reply to the UCET forum so that Mike knows to bring the stuff you need (it will be no good emailing me or posting to Facebook this week).
