That is fascinating (and news to me). However I can't quite place where the 2 ends of the tunnel are?

now if the shit hits the fan we can go under Binnian ( I know how much you hate going over it) I'm sure I've seen mister Grylls go under a mountain so it must be totally safe and the only sensible option to take  ::)
