Easily replaced with extra tea breaks. Situation normal

Nice one Andy. I am a week or so behind you & enjoying being an non smoker. If I had known how easy it is I would have quit years ago. I have to say there is the occasional "moment", but the fear of quitting is the greatest obstacle. Then when you understand that your body does not actually need nicotine (even though it will get a little anxious at it's removal from your system) life does become more enjoyable.

I think LDV locking fuel caps fit. Either that or just fill the tank with expanding foam
-
Chinstrap undone on the ground for me.

Well done. It's nice to see positive steps in the legitimization of handsplicing. .

Until something goes wrong & the insurance company invalidates your claim:sneaky2:

I would be conservative & with any rigging, avoiding it, if at all possible. Krech will have weakened the stem at the point where the lever forces encountered by big rigging will be greatest.

Nice Josh. Some smooth ropeing
-
Will they work with my fig biscuits?( I can easily make a hole to insall it) I hate dropping them down the back of the sofa. The fluff detracts from the taste sensation.

cross with what? pm me if it's a bitch

The Wraptor is an awesome ride, I tried it out a couple of years ago. The way forward in big tree work

Don't worry Dave, he will be back there tomorrow (cutting me more nice dead oak firewood) He's doing a great job "cleansing" the woodland path of all nasty deadwood. But we have only allowed him to cut path side. Gotta keep these ecomentalists appeased:thumbup1:

Looks like a call to the enforcement office then Bob! Only a foolish contractor would not bother to determine the ownership of the trees they work on. Either that or the don't care
-
depends how you climb. If you are going to weight it heavily, be conservative. If you are going to be gentle and distribute your weight twixt what your standing/climbing on you can go quite small. Use your common sense

looks like a k9 at first glance
-
Do you have any pictures?
-
What size is that loopie Frankie boy? Is it big enough to be used in conjunction with the 16mm line especially when larksfooted around such a tight radius?
-
I never found it detrimental being banned at AS
-
At that price you would have to have rigged it & chipped it solo.
-
Very good post Nigel. Information like this needs to be easily available. It gives the user a greater understanding of the processes and testing involved in certification
-
I agree. It does state, however that you should be qualified and competent
-
you can remove weight as you work your way up the tree. It's the rigging that could cause potential faliure
-
Hollies done now - only took 11 days:sneaky2: True I would climb it. But only because I'd pay to see Bob in a pair of thigh length waders:thumbup:
-
So I could bomb it out in huge lumps (trashing most targets) & ask for my flask to be sent up whilst they tidy up?
-
Stunning views. Nice vid
