Much to Ashs annoyance, after half an hour and 80m passage, I once again heard Beckas voice this time coming from the right route at a junction we had just found. Their lead had joined ours. Despite serious grumbling and suggestions their might be another junction soon, Ash persuaded them to push a silly lead somewhere else that no one else had bothered to look into. This peace lasted an hour till they were back. Everything had crapped out except our very promising looking passage. What preceded this led to the passage being called Outrageous Behaviour. Our group went from having no dogs to three: Becka and Wookey both pushing ahead to just see what the passage did next. There was some serious squabbling and vigorous discussion. Luke looked embarrassed to my amusement but our peace had been irreparably shattered. At this point wed met a rift and a small pitch and so they were all sent to get the drill. By the time they had returned Ash and I decided we were a) cold, b) wanted to be out at a reasonable time and c) 5 people was too many to push one lead. We retreated with only mild grumpiness.

The way out was rather nice, with smooth speedy caving. Drinks Shelf and Triassic are the exception - both of which are deceptively easy on the way in. Ash and I discussed many thing and it didnt feel like too long until we were signing out at Strange Downfall, having picked up a muddy pile of rope from Repton. None of our jammers gripped even slightly on Knossos of course and Ash was very patient at the amount I swore at my pantin. After another hour of caving we left through the crawl due to drip - luckily it wasnt raining on the surface, and we arrived back at Top camp at a respectable 11:30.
