Some amazing photos in there! Really, really good!

The manway cages in Bwlch glas are amazing, worth the effort of learning SRT, you just missed an SRT course in wales last week, it was only a tenner too, it was run by the cambrian caving council or CCC but the course was in Wales, they have run 2 SRT corses this year. so worth keeping an eye open on their site.

Give me a shout when this next happens please!

That looks like an interesting mine.
Great pics.

How do you know if you're on a false floor ? Are they indicated on surveys/plans or is it just a case of treading carefully ?

I wouldn't myself go in a mine for metallic ore for this reason though I've read that in such mines its a good idea to take a stick with you to test the floor ahead.
