Estelle and Jon headed in first and took some buckets in and started digging, the rest turned up about 5-10minutes later. Estelle dug the floor whilst Jon dug the wall at the front left and Ed joined him doing that too. The floor hole was cleared a fair bit and some rocks around it - it probably will drain, but we don't know for sure... The rest of the team were hauling the buckets outwards. Once the buckets were all full, Jon and Ed had a good poke at some loose looking boulders in the forward dig and also some that were getting more exposed on the left. Very little effort saw a large number individually displaced into the hole in the floor! The big one in the middle has been left in situ as will be easier to plug and feather there. 

After removing all the buckets outwards with some going down LH dig and some being emptied at the top, all buckets were scraped, but as it was a bit early, we went back in and moved a lot of rock back up the passage a bit, so if the end floods in future weeks, we can still do something useful and move those rocks out. Once the pub alarm occurred, we headed out and to the Hunters.
