Ha ha! I beat everyone else getting there (apart from Steve and Ellie)! Does that mean I get to name parts of it?

<br>I had a go at going in the obvious Big Orifice entrance but found it stupidly slippery and icy. Went round to the other end and entered through The Tradesman's Entrance. A small chamber followed with a short climb up through a simple squeeze made more 'interesting' by the presence of many small and spiky rocks (OK: rivets!). I fought my way over those and slid down and out of Big Orifice on my front.

<br>Gover followed and tried to ski down Big Orifice and slipped over and belted his back on the edge!

<br>The walk back was quite cold but the change was definitely Grade 1 'cos I'd put the heating on and watched Hollyoaks before I got changed. Well, stripped off, anyway!

<br>Fun trip all round. Especially for the security bloke who came and shone his torch for us, although he chickened out of going through! The Wentworth Horn proved to be too much for him, and Big Steve who got stuck!
