Frank Tully (for a bit)

Down Gaffered to explore chamber ("The Happy Hippocampus") below Slimy Sludge Shute (a right hand lead just before Sirens Traverse). Found out I should improve future rigging. Happy (aka stressful, muddy, in small, sharp passageway derigging the Slimy Sludge Shute.

Then went into the Subsoil levels (turning down existing A-lead, right hand side as you come down Chalk and Cheese pitch). As expected, bolting down into the chamber at the end of the A lead confirmed that it also emerged in the "Happy Hippocampus" chamber hence joining the Underworld and Subsoil levels :-). YAY.
