Westcliff section had been very keen to visit a group of us have been looking into it for ages..and with a little help from knox obs and frosty,thanks for the help guys ,We got our location.theere was too have been two teams of us..one in one out!Due to location and method of entry some of the guys couldnt manage this !in the end my self and james went for it..INTERESTING ENTRY IVE HEARD THE GUYS SAY..NOT ARF'!

Right very limit timed time window cos the guys who where out couldnt be waiting all night so only had an hour to do what we could and without tripod get best pics i could..tried playing with the auto focus using light up areas and then switching to manual but in the end went back to manual focus and considering the cramped flooded conditions and shortness of time i did my best..1 long exposure using some steps..right the hospital section we after wading knee deep in water and very slippy and deepening mud underfoot was aborted shame i wanted to get there..and there was a crumbling chalk fall along the liverpool lawn section so even tho i know it can be done a roof fall of the big variety wasnt sounding fun..but i got what i could

in no particular order and trying to put the in focus ones in..here we go..

..and the stretches that where flooded went on for ever lol..so gave up on second part else whe'd never got round the rest in time to get out
Lol, yeah it was pretty flooded when we was last down there, I don't think it was quite as bad as that back then though lol.
was a good visit tho..and will be trying it again..if i can get waders lol..and get them in there of course as u know acces not the easiest
