  1. H&S aside, I think it poses a larger question, or am I being too insightful?
  2. Hopefully the verdict in the appeal case of Perrin vs Northampton council will have bareing on future decisions such as this. http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=840 (although i have only highlighted the negatives in this thread) The continuation of litigeous claims by the general puplic will only drive these profit driven companies into further risk reducing actions. sign of the times i guess, sad.

I understand the flag issues, but if i was in that position i would do my best to reclaim it, as it is nothing to do with colour etc but a statement of where you belong.

  21. Ditto, was a great day. Many thanks to Dean for organising it (and his mrs for doing the food shopping ). Nice to have some relaxing climbing time with a great bunch. Plenty of laughing and joking, especially watching skyhuck in a spin:wave:. It should defiatley be repeated when the weather is a little warmer though- the camping and drinking would be a worthy addition
