Speedwell Cavern has a lot of steps and a boat ride. I know about the stairway 'cos I had to carry Gwen's Mum up them.
Peak Cavern is also called The Devil's ******** because of the farting type noises. Trust me, I used to have a sports car

To prevent disappointment, I can tell you that the Devil's Arse and Speedwell aren't presently on the itinerary but there may be a cavern
 To be honest, we've had a hell of a time trying to find places that will take us, let alone welcome us or offer us any sort of privileged access or reserved parking.

Never mind, we did that two years back with a flotilla of grand kids.
Jordan, who you all know, actually made a rope in the Devil's Arse.

I’d like to add a special note of thanks to Mark and Stephen for picking up the organisation of this meet after I dropped them in it by abdicating most of my responsibilities for personal family issues. Not a word of criticism or complaint from either of them. I’m hoping that I’ll be at the meet, but there no guarantees, I’m afraid.
There are some really great people in this ‘club’, and these guys are up there - big time! It’s shaping up to be a great meet, despite some difficulties with the organisation, and a round of applause for Mark and Stephen is well deserved. Thanks guys!
