Quotes

...fined £50 for common assault after he had used his umbrella and stick on a council workman who was cutting down a diseased sycamore in Giggleswick. "We have got people from North Yorkshire County Council pinching all our best trees" he explained. "It’s been going on for years."
In his book The Darkness Beckons – the history and development of cave diving, Martyn Farr wrote: "In May 1941, having gained entry to Mossdale Caverns in Yorkshire, Leakey made an amazingly bold solo exploration, passing through a series of three short sumps to reach Giant’s Hall... Leakey’s subsequent exploration of this system was to yield nearly nine kilometres of passage, making it, at the time, Britain’s longest cave. Another notable feat was his passage of the sump of Disappointment Pot in January 1944. Leakey was the most exceptional individual and, like Casteret, seemingly oblivious to the cold."
