25th September

Vince, Nick, Jake, and Jon

The usual warm trip to LoH&G, no time to cool down, straight into action. Nick digging, Jake ‘tossing’, me ‘catching’ and loading the skip, Jon hauling the skip away and dragging/lugging the bags along the passage and up the slope (as far as possible). At 20:30, 21 bags had been filled with sediment from the bottom of the pot. The digging is not easy – awkward and constricted. Now it was time to get the spoil along to it final destination in Pointless Pot. The bags now empty were placed on the old spoil heap to ‘dry!’ Another pair of hands made the task much easier.

Refreshments were enjoyed in the ravine with plenty of banter.
