well what a show, this was part 2 of the long old day underground and by far the hardest lol

a couple of weeks ago stu emailed me and asked if we could sort out a underground day soon, so emails again where sent and with the list growing week by week we had a good size group

most meet up at stu's then we met every one else at the quarry mans in box@ 9.30, final count was 12

me
klempner 69 (stu)
lizzie
mr bones
king al
drypulse
bonecollector
dazaf
petzl
spungletrumpet
fredd
trailblazer

from there we headed of a short journey round the corner to an underground location this is part 1, which at the moment we cant post a report, but we had a good walk round for a couple of hours and time just flew

then we headed back to quarrymans and into box, fair play to mr bones for getting over his fear of small places, after a couple of mins he was straigh through back door and was loving the experience, first stop was cathedral
