Maps on rice paper are the way to go - that way you can eat the evidence

Seriously good work here...

Cheers guys, the best is yet to come for sure. The cork door was conqured.. excessivly!

The genny is a Paxman YHA manufactured by Davey Paxman in Colchester no less. It looks big but its a tiddler compared to 'the quadruplets' which i will get onto in due course.

Walking in through an open door required balls, yes, but it was just a little too easy and maybe just a little bit of a cheat

Thanks for the mention in the OP, but hey...we took our chance and it paid off! And if it was so easy how come no one else managed it?...

....anyway mate, seriously nice report and I'm really looking forward to the next installments! Looks like you covered the lot!!! Good work

After the next instalments it might be time for an update to Secret Underground Cities. As far as I can tell, the "Bible" didn't mention the term "Burlington" at all.

Margerine tubs work very well, use different coloured ones and you can play 'pooh-sticks'
