    got this sent through, it shows some of the lakes and areas that got hit with the floods, if any of you have been to the lakes i'm sure you'll know the places. Lake District flood - Friday 20th November 2009 - StridingEdge it might take a few minutes to load as theres lots of pic's in high res

    had the one from sherrill a few years back, a good toy, great for the show room, but not in the real world, not enough power to realy pull the line in with a bag on across a lawn. i think that once the batteries ran out i never bothered replacing them:thumbdown:

    sorry but you can, though there is a clause that the inspection should be done without 'fear or favour' and this could be taken that if you are buying your gear that you may 'favour' of not failing it, though if your an inspector why would you climb on dodgy gear. and all that pete said too.
  22. Craig Johnson
    its the petzl pantin you have, so you must keep the rope vertical, which is ok for true srt but is why the cmi foot asscender is better for tree work IMHO as the rope locks in
  23. Craig Johnson
    large bucket with old oil in, throw in a burning rag, put chiminey on top with vents in and called it a 'salamander'
  24. Craig Johnson
    i've had a pair of cmi's for a while, very robust and better for me as the rope locks in. worked out cheaper than the petzl too, who didnt make rightes then
