Gwilym's Adventure Blog

I am not a caver, never have been, never will be. Don't get it! Why on earth would you want to crawl around underground like a mole? However, with no water in the rivers and getting bored sitting at home I accepted an invite from Olly and Chris to join them in Bakers Pit in Devon. It was warm and dry underground and I have definitely been in worse caves. It was good because the company was good and there were limited other options on the table. For the record, Olly is in Cave Rescue hence the suit in pic 2, we didn't actually need rescuing. Please rain soon, so I can go paddling!

After spending yesterday and today continuing to supervise a Gold D of E group, this evening I allowed Olly to take me down Long Churn cave in Yorkshire. I haven't been caving for a very long time as I am not a great fan. Although some of the features were quite interesting, I am quite happy for it to be another 15 years before I go again.
