John Cooper, Pete Hann and Nigel Graham. John and Nigel did one
double mix whilst Pete descended to see what needed doing. The mix was split
over 3 buckets as usual which John ferried down as required. At the start Pete
had been digging clatch out of the floor to stash behind the rock John had been
cementing in last Wednesday. Once sufficient floor had been cleared Pete
started to build up the wall on the left, the intention being to support the
left hand wall so the big block in the middle could be removed. John assisted
Pete by getting the rocks from the top stacking space together with smaller
bits as required. Once Pete had started on the third bucket John ascended with
the two empty buckets to get a second double mix underway. Once this was ready two
thirds was loaded into the two buckets which John took down. Retrieving the
third bucket this was sent up to Nigel to load and then sent down to John. Once
Pete had used up two buckets from the second mix John took them out and escorted
Nigel down as far as the final drop. A very useful cementing session. No
photos. 3½ hours. John.
