  1. Some nice pics Tom. Gotta love those long brash drags !
  2. http://www.ukgamefair.co.uk/comp.html the link on the banner
  3. didn't need to know that:scared:
  4. Canopy access. Covering srt, footlocking etc. Ladders seem to be the be all and end all to most, but imo on larger trees there are easier ways. Would like to see best practive and options employing minimal kit, the shiny gadjet love is not shared by all
  5. I had to ignore that, i guess goats just don't turn me on as much as him:scared: :wave:
  6. I'm sure you girly, southern, shandy drinkers can put your heads together and arrange you own get together:thrasher:
  7. Thats generous of Alex and timberwolf. Thanks
  8. If I'm climbing I like to charge decent money, and taking into consideration the training, paperwork etc I'd want similar for training. The cost is high at face value, but over a working career it is almost insignificant
  9. Maybe enough slack for the limb to hit the floor!
  10. Bump! Couple of weeks away now!
  11. I know the whitehaven area quite well. Sister lives in cockermouth. The quieter side of the lakes, stunning. Enjoy

  13. The purchase as usual will depend on budget. Minimal- LDV, money to waste- old transit, a bit of cash- cabstar, a decent amount- canter and money to throw away- a new transit. IMHO you buy the best you can, and save for what you want.
  14. Nice to see. Thanks for making the time to share with us. More please
  15. Horlicks
  16. Someone send me some and i will be more than happy too
  17. pic please steve if you can
  18. is it available in the uk yet?
  19. Anyone got any experience of this rope? It looks promising IMO http://www.neropes.com/Datasheets/tachyon.pdf.

    big saws

    cool, then all we need is an extra half an hour on our working day to start it. Does it get supplied with a paper bag for your head so you don't have to be seen with an orange piece of crap in our hands?
  21. This is why I climb with a long lanyard (AND a wirecore if dismantling). Enough flexibility in positioning not to rely on compromising my system to ensure my rope is not struck
  22. I will run with that one. Now if you tell me what completely retarded ones understand I might be able to communicate with you from my lofty arb perch:wave: Nicely managed pollards by the way John
  23. Welcome John. In this fine spring weather i'd make the best of the desk time
  24. It was fun indeed. How can you expect to see him taking pics when you were blind drunk As you can see Andy and i were the only 2 sober people there:wave:
