Description

Follow That Frog!

For over three years divers in the Swansea Valley have worked to follow the underground course of the Ogof Ffynnon Ddu streamway, revealing over one kilometre of sumped passages in the process. With success came a new connection between OFD 1 and 2.

With Rationed Ropes and Spits

The 1996 Yangtze Caves expedition was divided into two teams: one ended up with deep shafts and no spits, the other with horizontal cave and lots of rope. How did this latest in the China Caves Project expeditions fare?

The Changing Face of UK Caving

Many cavers do not understand the basis of our national body, the NCA, perhaps never more so than at present. As changes to the constitution are debated, heated words have followed which question its role. Here, Glenn Jones puts forward the views of the CNCC, which Mick Day, the Chairman of the NCA, answers.

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR EU CUSTOMERS

On 1 July 2021 the EU removed all exemptions for tax and customs duty on low-value items posted from the UK to the EU, meaning that although VAT is 0% on books and magazines in the UK, it is charged within the EU and the VAT (potentially plus a handling fee) now applies to all orders to the EU.

All small publishers in the UK are now in the same position – we are unable to post any items to the EU with VAT or other duties paid.

When ordering any item from Stalactite Publishing, including a Descent subscription, you accept responsibility for paying the VAT and any other local charges on delivery.

Stalactite Publishing is not able to cover any charges levied by your country; it is your responsibility to accept these when placing an order.

We apologise for this situation, but please understand that it is outside our control.
