Uni: Back at Poly and a Trip to Cheddar Gorge, Somerset and Plymouth - 2nd October 1986

It's back to Plymouth for the start of the second year, and it's back to new digs on Mount Street - which for a change is actually not very far from the Polytechnic and so doesn't need a bike ride or a season ticket for the CityHoppa buses. For a bit of a trip, Riki gets his car out and hauls Nosher and Chris Beard up the M5 to Cheddar Gorge - home to the Cheddar Caves and Wookey Hole - for a wander around underground.
