Cheers Ed for this thread, really enjoying it, as i am classed as a "Newbie" to climbing, giving me a great laugh:biggrin:

 

The thing that comes to mind though is how fast things are moving on. After 5 or 6 years climbing, i am now getting comments like "oh, you still only climb on a prussik dont you"!

 

Back then anything like a VT was just for the hyper techno guys where i was taught!

 

Keep em coming you old boys:sneaky2:

'whats that mate? you dont want us to burn off 6 tonnes of arb waste on your lawn?'

[Big 'Ammer]

How about pushing the yellow knob down in the landy when you had a big lump to pull over.
