Belzybob Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Spent some time looking through the survey material from past caving expeditions in this system. Its rather well documented, so Mr Unsworth and his group are well equipped to gauge the possibilities and probabilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might well read this as he does look at tv and he is one bloke who I know that is an expert on caves . I will ask him if he read this next time we meet at the coffee shop. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's your buddy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VocalNeal Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 I heard o the TV that the British divers are looking in a different direction to others which to me sounds like the have been marginalized and so have decided to do their own thing. Maybe they came here with good intentions but did not come with uniforms and shinny medals so did not impress the locals who as we know like uniforms. Who knows we just keep our fingers crossed. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balo Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 (edited) Unfortunately the Thai government officials hate foreigners who claim they are experts . As we all know only Thais knows what's best for them and any other suggestions will be totally ignored. Edited June 29, 2018 by balo 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many worldly outsiders would scoff at this but yes i must agree 100% if they came wearing long white scientists coats they probably would get a very different welcome 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swanny321 Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 In some ways 'Vern' is an apt name for someone who advises on potential caving tragedies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
