Vandalism? I prefer to call it 'access' after it was blocked the first time with huge pieces of stone.
No not access, vandalism. Tires slashed on farm machinery, anything that would smash smashed, and trying to respray a tractor!!
I agree its unfair to blame those guys, it's the fact that the police have been summoned to rescue several groups in the last two weeks, and have obviously given hansons a bollocking.

Is not the fact there was vandalism, it's the lazy fucking wankers that couldn't be bothered to hide the access.
As for box, I did hear about the two groups getting lost and banging on the gates at Clift. Find out who they are and blame them.
And who is that bitter twat exspelio ? Irrelevant shit stirring loser.

Wide open as of last week, but sometime during the summer some twat has burnt tyres in the old offices and toilets. Very blackened walls now.
As I stated I'm not blaming anyone, so I don't need to find out who they are, and when that link was posted on uk caving, I actually said there, that it was unfair to blame those chaps. Not really sure why you seem to be getting funny with me??
In not getting arsey, you're interpreting it wrong.
Sadly Popeass, when ever shit hits the fan or controversy arises in the mine exploration community there is more often than not a mention of 28 days later on the other forums, if it ain't about the gates being ground off their hinges at Cwmorthin or the workshops in maenofferen being shiprobbed or the knee jerk reaction of Hanson at Box...we get a mention and it kinda gets a bit tedious so perhaps that may be why you find us a bit on the defensive.
Well if I interpreted it wrong,then fine. It certainly did seem like you were telling me directly to find out who needed rescuing and blame them, when I already said I wasn't looking to blame anyone.
I can understand why you feel defensive about this, as its not fun to be blamed for things you have no hand in. I think maybe people look to blame 28DL, and urbex in general, because urbex is so broad, in terms of locations, it can introduce people to quarries, who have absolutely no interest in them, other than being cool places to tick of a list. I'm certainly not saying this is how urbex actually is, but how sometimes it may be percieved. I've admired and respected your work Kwan, and can see you have a passion for all things mining and mining history related, as do I.
I'm not on anyones 'side', apart from the quarries.

When we last went it looked as if There was a massive party down there shortly after it was sealed.. Someone went at the doors with a gas axe to reopen it by the looks of it. Was a complete mess down there so probably same mess you mention!
