Tuesday 4th August 2026

We met for 5pm at the dig, ready with a bag of cement. We were underground for half past. At Boulder Rift Chamber we grabbed all but one of the bags of sand/dust. With minimal spillage five bags and ourselves dropped down into Tea Party Chamber. Having had a good look around making a plan we set about it, 3 mixes were made up whilst I cleaned out the bottom ready for walling. The un-cemented side was walled up and a small step added. The second load went under one of the large boulders to support the wall ready for downwards progress next time. 3.5hrs 

We emptied all the bags in TPC, bringing all the bags out! 4 broken tackle bags were taken from site & washed, in the hope that they can be fixed. There is no cement, but 3 bags of dust and 2 bags of sand left in Tea Party Chamber.
