Aha, so it was your idea I nicked for the tunnel shot? Some cracking shots there, a few of mine at http://www.flickr.com/photos/gdenscombe/

 

No problem George.... my friend Ray went down first I think I then went down after him and was followed by others.It was great inside the tunnel when the WD went through a BIG thank you to the crew and Kieran for allowing us to go inside to get this shot.Thanks also to Don for another superb charter.

 

Nice shots gents.

It was a charter I would have loved to have done, but sadly time, distance and money made it prohibitive! ........................... now if the Dub Dee ever makes it down South........ something I'd love to see pounding up the Alps at the Mid-Hants!..................................... I remember her (and Big Jim) from my youth at the KWV!!R

 

Thanks Duty Druid. I understand there is another charter next week and some places are still available this one done by Neil Cave http://www.neilcave.co.uk/

My pleasure, Sir!

I bet there was some noise in Mytholmes Tunnel!!

I'll have to drop Neil an email and get on his mailing list for the charters..................... sadly next week is too short a notice for me!!
