Took a couple of old hammers from HLIS over and while Mike W and Duncan did the tourist trip into the top bit of cave, the rest of us started on trying to move boulders and mud from the lower digs. Duncan came back and joined in helping and Mike W decided to dig in the end of the top dig. Mike M joined him after a while. Estelle carried on digging out of the lowest dig while James and Duncan got ‘personal’ with a few boulders and beat them up and got them out. A drill and either caps or P&F would be more productive, but we do need more tools in general in there – couple of decent hammers, a small shovel or 2 and maybe another bar or 2 wouldn’t go amiss. A few of the cable ties on the ladder are starting to come loose and we really should look at getting a better ladder to make it safer. While we were digging we could hear storm Barney blowing a hoolie over the top of the digsite!
