Will send san some photo of the trip into the limestone mines takes about an hour from the canal by the black country museum

These people give a good and informative trip and all are volenteers at the moment there trying to raise money for a new visitor/reception centre good luck to them, your visit will help :grin:
A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.

The Netherton Tunnel? When we were kids we'd ride our bikes through there for nowt!!
Talking of limestone and caverns what's happened to the Wrens Nest? As kids we'd go down and explore on our own.
