[INCLUDES BITS OF maxpleasure3, ALL OF maxpleasure 5]
Just for a Laugh
Three west-going passages from Maximum Pleasure unite and head down steeply, with a strong inward draught. After 50m a rock pillar is encountered. Left turns on either side of the rock pillar unite in a single passage that heads uphill for 45m to a boulder choke with a voice and light connection to Maximum Pleasure immediately south of Starfish Junction.
Ahead at the rock pillar the passage continues in similar fashion to a chamber with large lumps of flowstone. There is an aven above this chamber [2007-258-30 X], and an unexplored sandy passage immediately before [2007-258-29 B]. Beyond the aven two routes round a rock pillar lead to a crossroads. Right (north) leads to a 25m blind pitch. Left (south) is a smaller, sandy floored passage. Ahead (west) the passage develops a floor trench and continues 11m to a second crossroads. Ahead (west) is a too tight right. Right (north) is a boulder floored passage, passing a 12m pitch immediately on the left (Damp Squib). A further 15m along, a low passage on the left rapidly closes down. The main passage continues for a further 25m to a boulder choke. This point is 15m away from a similar boulder choke at the southern extremity of Crossword Passage.
Left (south) at the second crossroads are two smaller passages that unite and develop a stream trench. Following this passage for 20m leads to a fork.
Following the lefthand fork, a small passage immediately on the left leads back to the first crossroads described above (the south-going passage), passing an unexplored narrow crawl down on the right [2007-258-54 C]. Continuing straight ahead on the lefthand fork leads to a sharp lefthand bend with an unexplored uphill crawl straight ahead [2007-258-52 C]. The continuing passage round the bend heads downhill and meets the passage from the righthand fork after 10m.
Following the righthand fork, after 15m the passage from the lefthand fork described above is met on the left. Immediately beyond is a 1.5m climb down, at the base of which an unexplored low crawl leads off on the right [2007-258-55 C]. Left at the foot of the climb is So Vein.
