Yes, is that the right terminology? You set yourself up in postion, then try to move a bit for whatever reason and the rope has trickled through the ZZ and you are locked in place.

That it does it itself?

Hate the self-tending of the ZZ.

Women and children first is the generally accepted norm with most people 🤷‍♂️ Two women die during failed Channel crossing attempt APPLE.NEWS Authorities say the pair died off the coast of northern France after about 100 people set off by makeshift boat.

Ok fair enough, good to know.

They are very different in construction and feel. I have both

Yep, me.

Just looked that up, never seen it before but looks really good. I really like the smooth progressive release on a hitch, but went for RRP to allow switching from DRT to SRT. Seems the Freexion is also designed to allow that. Tempting, really tempting.

I have it in my head that Tree Austria make the Stein Vega harness. Certainly looks very similar, would like to know if they are really the same as I'm on a Vega but don't like the yellow they put on the new one so could switch.

We are looking for a tree climber who can drive. Pay depends on experience. we are based in Muswell Hill North Lindon.

Bit long winded but it does cover the whole farcical event.

Pete North arrested yesterday for sharing a meme online. I would post the link, but I really can’t work out how to. What was he arrested for? Sharing a meme which is obnoxious towards Palestine and Muslims. What he posted was pretty stupid, but is this really what we want the police to do?

Just to avoid any confusion and to show the content of the whole post not a selectively edited portion, the above is what I actually posted. The context of which is very very different to the edited version posted by a particularly weak shit stirring anonymous individual.

Just thinking about this "right to work" ID cards which every employer will have to record when the calculate their workers taxable income and availability to work....... Back when I was a youth, I got given a unique number which the state used to identify me, my address, age, tax status etc. This, I believe, is still needed for employment and is called a National Insurance Number. Let's just say, "if ain't got one, you cannot get a job, benefits, NHS services and can deported that afternoon along with any dependants no matter where they where born! Would that work? Or are we better off waiting for these cards to be issued within the next 5 years?

As they say in Crypto. HODL.

A one dog ground clearance machine in the making - I expect to see him on arbtalk touting for work sometime soon. He doesn't seem half as stupid as you've led us to believe in the past. 😁

I can’t pay for my hookers and coke with chip and pin either.

I am not talking about fantasy newspaper headlines and their bullshit predictions. I am talking about actual behaviour, banning your best friends from family BBQ’s because they didn’t have the jab, and such like. The Government cancelling Christmas with a few days notice, whilst partying behind closed doors, and people going along with it. I have lost all faith in people making a stand in the UK.

What we are living through currently is phase two of Blairs great plan, if you didn't like the first phase, you certainly ain't gonna like phase two,, wait until phase three is forced upon us. Euan Blair ,that is Tony Blairs son ,is part of Britcard ,worth to him 375 million alone ,it's been in making for many years. Basically, as soon as cash is removed from mainstream use,you will be at the mercy of Britcard ,designed by Euan Blair ,therefore it is possible to debank you completely, you will have nothing How many government / civil service / public sector data leaks have there been in the last 5 years 2025 MoD Afghan Relocations Data Breach (2022 leak revealed in 2025) A spreadsheet in 2022 containing the personal information of ~18,700 Afghans who applied under the ARAP (Afghan Relocations & Assistance Policy) was accidentally sent by MoD outside secure system. The leak affected names, contact details, and some family info. Estimated 80,000-100,000 people (including family members) possibly at risk. There was a superinjunction to block reporting until 2025. 2024 PSNI Data Breach (Police Service of Northern Ireland) A spreadsheet released as part of a Freedom of Information request included a “hidden” tab with surnames, initials, rank, role, and other details of all 9,483 PSNI officers and staff. The ICO fined PSNI £750,000 for this breach. This was called an “egregious breach” because of exposure risk to dissident republicans etc. 2023-2024 Information Security Review by the Government After multiple accidental data breaches in the public sector, including the Afghan leak and others, the Cabinet Office published a review in 2023 to try to improve procedures. 2021-2022 Electoral Commission cyber-attack & data breach In 2021-22 the Electoral Commission was hacked; reference copies of the electoral registers (names and addresses of 40 million UK voters) were accessed. 2021 MoD ARAP email error (smaller leak) An earlier breach where a mass email was sent to 245 people under the ARAP scheme, exposing details of interpreters fleeing Afghanistan. A smaller but serious breach.

Its probably recovered to where it would have been had he not done that . Its just at the time it was a bit of a blow 🙂

+1 for a hitchclimber. Some people even prefer it to a zigzag! Also a good affordable stepping stone to SRT when you're ready with the addition of a rope wrench or similar. Watch the Hitchclimbers Guide to the Canopy
