In Desperate times...My Silky saves the day!

Yeh, basically but now some clients have got it into them heads we need refreshing every 5 years or to complete a higher unit

Exactly right Mr Git. I did the blue book in 96...then refreshed my units in 2006 with Bob and now i'm doing them again but you are right some clients require that we are tested every 5 years.I get on very well with Bob and would be very happy to be doing the same role or similar as him in the future.Training is so rewarding.It's nice to get back to basics and today was a breath of fresh air for me.I like safe practice.He seemed impressed with the E-Saw.

Day 2....its quite amazing when i think how kit has changed..I first did this unit on basic rope with my system tied at both ends and used an O20T...then i used a modern rope and strop with an MS 200T and today i'm climbing on a ZigZag and using a 160T...How things have changed (for the better)

Good to see the other lads on the course enjoying themselves and benefitting from Rob's advice.

All looking good 👍. I feel for Bob , having to look up all the time. ( stiff neck afterwards)

I think he has developed an extra strong muscle on his nape...It's like grounding,the further away you stand then you reduce the angle at which you have to look up....it's been a great second day.I Got to strip out two trees and show off my saw and it's capabilities...And Rob has been very kind in providing tea and coffee!

Another highly enjoyable day...and still the tiny but mighty MSA160T never lets me down.Stripped out two trees (many cut as each branch was cut into jump/free fall step hand held and directional cut sections and at the end of the day i still had half a battery left.Really looking forward to the assesment tommorow.

Good luck with the assessments Paul and congrats on being a two time granddaddy.

 

See you at the show at the weekend. Sorry I didn't get back to you via PM. Been busy with work and the kids.

 

My eldest is 9 tomorrow. Secretly I hope the weather is gash so I can help him build his latest Lego set.
