John Cooper and Simon Richards (Nik Nak). With just 2 we decided to go to the bottom and see what we could do. We spent the time creating a heap of spoil that should keep us busy for at least a week. 2 hours.

John Cooper, Jacob Easterling, Mark Easterling (Bean), Wayne Starsmore, Adrian Vanderplank, Jude Vanderplank and Barry Weaver. Adrian and Jude had an early start with capping. When the rest of us arrived Jude went out. One load of stone dust carried in and mixed up to use at the bottom. Replaced the krab on the hauling rope in Four-Tonne shaft with a new one supplied by Tony. With Adrian capping, John filling, Barry hauling up the bottom shaft, Wayne transferring, Jacob on the ledge and Bean throwing the spoil along to The Pit 29 loads were hauled up before the cement was requested. Whilst Adrian and John cemented the rest emptied the Pit. Adrian took a picture of the pretties in the way on. 3 hours +.

John Cooper, Mark Easterling (Bean), Tony Seddon, Wayne Starsmore, and Adrian Vanderplank. The top ladder on Nut Pitch was replaced having been cleaned and greased. Adrian wall building. With John loading and Bean on the ledge 44 good loads were hauled up Four-Tonne Shaft and deposited in The Pit before then being moved to the top. The bottom of Four-Tonne shaft is now clear. The top section of the lower part of Nut pitch was replaced with a new greased ladder. Having been made for the very bottom pitch it is slightly longer than the one it has replaced which will be cleaned and greased. 2½ hours.
