  1. Horse logging?
  2. An airplane was about to crash. There were 4 passengers on board, but only 3 parachutes. The 1st passenger said "I am Stephen Curry, the best NBA basketball player. The Warriors and my millions of fans need me, and I can't afford to die." So he took the 1st pack and left the plane. The 2nd passenger, Donald Trump, said, "I am the newly-elected US President, and I am the smartest President in American history, so my people don't want me to die." He took the 2nd pack and jumped out of the plane. The 3rd passenger, the Pope, said to the 4th passenger, a 10 year old schoolboy, "My son, I am old and don't have many years left, you have more years ahead so I will sacrifice my life and let you have the last parachute." The little boy said, "That's okay, Your Holiness, there's a parachute left for you. America 's smartest President took my schoolbag."
  3. Again CE 'd Poison Ivy vs the rest of the world Poison Ivy.? Two very different ropes.
  4. Joe is the guy who kindly offered to get the thing down for you... Maybe you missed his post?
  5. Give Joe a ring. That will put your mind at rest.
  6. Where was this at mate? PM me if you want to keep it quiet.
  7. The latter. They have changed to core to be more compliant.
  8. A bag. Buy extra luggage for the flight and pack it the same as you other stuff.

  11. Check the treestuff website. They had an advisory on the quickie.
  12. Israeli? Which was that?
  13. Yes, that Cuban showed his knee was harder than the Yankee's head. There were some great fights on the card. The all Polish women fight was great as was the Tyrone Woodley vs Wonderboy. I think that Cuban fella would give Bisping a run for his money.
  14. Nice to meet you Marc this weekend. I just stick to the pinto top tie, but until something else crops up that I find as easy to setup , I will be watching this space.
  15. Liberty. Oh, liberty!
  16. Picked one up at the APF after using a home made jobbie for about 3 years. I plumbed for the Velux without footloop. Seems to work fine and gives a decent stride length for max efficiency. I lent it to a you kid one day who fancied a go on SRT... he was much shorter than me but it worked a treat straight out of the box for him as well.
  17. Haha. Maybe it is a Swedish thing? My Swedish father in law is in his 70's and he delights in lecturing me on the number of hours he has worked in a week. He drives a taxi. I remind him that I climb trees (not sat in a drivers seat all day), carrying tools and rigging gear about the canopy and then when I have finished chopping it down I quite often have to pick it up and carry it out.
  18. Yup, a wonky painting. Great shot, very moody.
  19. Let us know what you end up with Paul. Decisions, decisions!
  20. Paul, I know you are a creature of habit. BUT As you have tried out that rope a couple of times, why not mix it up a bit. There are a lot of ropes to choose from out there. You never know mate, you might enjoy something else that isn't so bouncy. FTR I think blue tongue is really bouncy on a long haul. Tachyon is also bouncy but not as much as BT. Or as you said it was for rec climbing why not be a real maverick and go for something not CE marked. That opens up a whole new realm of ropes.
  21. I do believe that was a modified bridge that failed. The climber had replace the bridge with the incorrect type of cord, hence the failure when shock loaded.
  22. Highhams farm near biggin hill. Home
  23. Mark it is only the new pantin. The old one was fine for kicking out, unless you were a gimp, like yourself.
  24. I doubt there are any Hotels up there.
  25. Looking good John. Had a smallish Varigated Acer to RJ this morning. Approx 20% and thin and cut out the reverted growth. Customer happy. Second job cancelled. Rich
