Sunday 5th May 2024

Mike Kushy, Adrian Miles, Jack Miles and John Cooper.

MK started just after 9.30, took in 2 drills and set to work on the slab ahead. At some point AM and JM arrived and cleared the rocks at the base of the shaft to surface. Around 12.30 they joined MK at the bottom. With MK handing up the 10ft to AM, then back to JM in the chamber most of the bottom was cleared. AM then came in to see the end before they departed. The rest of the drill battery was used not long after. A hole below the slab has appeared and draughts really well. The bottom is filled up with rock, which needs clearing now. The chamber also has a lot of loose rock in it. Around 2ish MK got to surface and caught JC getting a mix on. This was used stabilising some more of the floor in the chamber. All stone dust now used up. Some of the bungees have snapped on the surface shelter, also the bucket deviation is very worn and could do with replacing. 5 hours, Mike.
