let me know if you are definately up for it as you will need some equipment(ooh errhh misses) torch, robust boots etc, I have been down there a couple of times before but this time I will be looking for evidence of a rumoured "secret tunnel"
I was thinking around midday as the weather will have cleared up by then.
hms ganges, whats that? |

Midday is fine with me, I'll wait in the Coalhouse carpark in my red R reg Fiesta. I may have a torch that I can bring with me
HMS Ganges is an old Royal Navy training establishment, now abandoned. |

wear some tough clothing as the place is so overgrown we will need to cut our way in, I will bring some garden shears, I know the easiest routes but I would think we will still have to do a bit of "gardening" LOL, I have a big bright torch so no problem if you not got one, I will see you at midday in the car park then, I will be driving a white transit connect.
Cheers, Dave. |

What, I've got to buy a camera too? I was going to bring my watercolour set ( I've just got a waterproof camera that I want to try out, before doing the magazine level at Darnet Fort. No doubt it'll come in handy, as it's bound to chuck it down tomorrow.) |

I would love too attend but i'm picking up my Landy in the morning and then hosting a paranormal group overnight.
I'll listen out for any cries for help when i'm in the north cap then?
