I might have the odd photo underground, though (I do mean odd, by the way).....<BR/>But I won't be overdoing the underground stuff - most of my activities will be upstairs...Mike Knipehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12792636586674245725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-177918675979573010.post-58561060573324707542008-09-29T08:52:00.000+01:002008-09-29T08:52:00.000+01:00Correct, Mike - I'm the other half of Nallo Lady, ...Correct, Mike - I'm the other half of Nallo Lady, purveyor of CCS.<BR/>The problem with caving blogs could be 1. limited interest, 2. limited images (ie not much litter down there!). It's a challenge to dig something out. Or are fresh visits needed?<BR/>I try to make the blog an enjoyable indulgence rather than a chore. That works for me, and I hope the readers enjoy some of the postings, but no doubt they will skip others.<BR/>Have fun with yours.<BR/>MartinPhreerunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08551842487502221703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-177918675979573010.post-88876212772207881052008-09-27T15:57:00.000+01:002008-09-27T15:57:00.000+01:00Martin (Have I got that right?!...Oooer...)The pic...Martin (Have I got that right?!...Oooer...)<BR/><BR/>The picture is of my pal Brian in the lead mines at Nenthead - I don't seem to have any pics taken in proper caves...<BR/>Most of my underground stuff nowadays seems to be leadmines or very short North Pennine caves - so there'll be more of that now that you've encouraged me!Mike Knipehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12792636586674245725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-177918675979573010.post-77693252156288209542008-09-27T12:58:00.000+01:002008-09-27T12:58:00.000+01:00Great, MikeI don't recall any other caving posting...Great, Mike<BR/>I don't recall any other caving postings from the outdoor bloggers. There should be more. I've never been into Gaping Gill, but my caving mentor, Jackie Ross, helped explore some of its narrow passages back in the 50s and 60s. We were kids then, and had great fun in the Intestines of Crackpot and other similar places. Happy days! Must go down there again!Phreerunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08551842487502221703noreply@blogger.com
