Proposal for New Year

I was thinking to copy this one from 2 years ago. I would maybe leave out Penyghent pot, because it's almost impossible to have weather that is dry and settled enough for it.

Proposal for Lent Term

Lent term begins tue 12/01 and finishes fri 12/03

  • 1st meet: fri15/sun17 JAN -- MENDIP
    • hut: Wessex
    • caves: charterhouse, GB, swildon's short round, etc
  • 2nd meet: fri29/sun31 JAN -- PEAK DISTRICT
    • hut: TSG
    • caves: Titan-Peak-JH (speedwell?) extravaganza, or other trips to mines (please advise), eldon hole?
  • 3rd meet: fri12/sun14 FEB -- SOUTH WALES
    • hut: Whitewalls,
    • caves: aggy, darren, draenen, DYOgof (yeah, right...)
  • 4th meet: fri26/sun28 FEB or fri05/sun07 MAR -- YORKSHIRE
    • hut: Brackenbottom,
    • caves: penyghent pot (some of us -Edvin especially- want to visit the "living dead" extensions) or shall we wait for april for this?
      • On second thoughts, and more imoprtantly whilst I'm sober, I think I'm unlikely to be up to that! Edvin

Anything else that people want to give a try to?

  • How about Birks Fell again? Edvin
  • Birks Fell again would be good, or Jean pot (GG)? Emma

When's the best month for Otter hole?

Proposal for Mich Term

The squash is on Fri 9th October.

After pub discussion, we came to this plan (more or less?):

-> One extra one day meet to Peaks would be the ideal solution to the high number of novices we experienced in the last couple of years.
