1) moons hill quarry (st 644 459) thu, 19/04/07, 13:00. sunny, clear sky, good visibility.
a blast at the quarry, not too impressive, didn't really know where to look. but all it was really, was a low rumbling and a lot of dust.
2) doulting quarry (st 649 436) fri, 20/04/07, 12:30. cloudy sky, good visibility.
a massive chain-car-thing cuts the oolitic limstone into blocks. did you know you could stack 848-1272 blocks of doulting stone of 1m thickness on top of each other before the lowest one fails?
