Proposal for New Year 2009/2010

[Our annual New Year's trip to Yorkshire. It isn't mandatory to come for the full week. And it's a good way to get in some out of term caving! The plan above is just a list of the permits we got so far but there are plenty of non permit caves in Yorkshire and endless possibilities of caving :) ]

Thanks to Stuart, Emma & Becka for contributing to this!
