Editorial
Please can I have more articles or anything to go in the
BB. I have nothing in reserve as usual!
Nothing sensational seems to have happened since Christmas,
though lots of caving has been done. I
tell a lie! There was one rescue in
Eastwater. A girl hurt her back in
Dolphin Pot but was extricated successfully by the MRO. The biggest casualty being Tony Boycott who
crashed his car while on his way to attend the rescue and, I believe,
damaged/broke some ribs. I dont seem to
be very good at gathering the latest Mendip news so I've asked Jake if he'll
write a synopsis for each BB - he's agreed! The first should appear in the next issue.
I have three letters in front of me from members whose
addresses were incorrect (the corrected ones are on page 2). The letters weren't specifically for
publication in the BB but I'm sure they won't mind if I include some extracts
from them here.
The first is from Clare Coase whose BB's have been sent to
one of her neighbours for a long time and they're getting fed-up with running a
delivery service - sorry Clare. She
would also like to say a big thank you to, and I quote The Club members who
were so super to us all, especially to those intrepid leaders of that caving
trip with Damien and
The second is from Steve Milner, who says a largish article
is almost ready for the BB and that he would give it to Tony & Trebor when
they visited Oz after Christmas. Where
is it Steve? Also how about an article
from J'Rat or Trebor about their exploits?
The third is from Harry Stanbury and I shall quote the P.S. to the letter. "My wife does a very reasonable B & B for any BEC'ites who should happen to stray this far!!". That sounds like an offer too good to be missed if anyone gets to Bude!
