John Cooper, Pete Hann, Adrian Vanderplank and Jude Vanderplank. Jude filled the bucket and the rest of us hauled up the spoil in the main shaft. With only four of us we had to double handle it so only 21 buckets moved. 1½ hours. John.

John Cooper, Pete & Myself. A “21 bucket” evening of clatch hauling due to NikNak being ill. Adrian.

Clare, Kevin, Jude, Pete & Myself. Massive clearing session from the very bottom of the dig, probably increasing the depth by another 2 feet. Three more holes drilled in the floor and in the South and a two det charge bang done with me overseeing Kevin laying it. The charge was fired from the bottom of the Four Tonne Shaft and we were chased out by the fumes. Adrian.
