Report - swan mine july 2010

[tommo]

i have been here many time and have done a report almost a year ago, so i wouldnt normally repost.......... but hopefully it will encourage some of the others to pop some of there pics up from the day


we all meet up at 9.00 am at the quarrymans for a good old english breakfast, with a good chat and some introductions made we headed of to browns for fluffys and newage first trip in there, i didnt take any more pics of the place so hopefully one of the others will pop some of theres up

then we headed over to swan pub for a nice drink before heading in to swan for a couple of hours,

but here are a couple of my pics from the day, there is a group shot, but as swan is very well known i dont think there will be an issue and every one gave permission by being in it
