I think the main danger is it makes you a God in the eyes of most beautiful women. You are bound to get injured at some point fighting them off either that or wearing it down to a nubbin!

I have had a 60 m length of 16mm polydine and it has been great. Highly recommended.

Because he has a good agent and Lawyer who excel in writing early termination clauses. Scandalous, I know! #Canto-yes

Only one choice left IMO. http://youtu.be/g-rQ5B8LHXE

Good luck with it all. I hope it goes as smooth as it can.

I think this is a similar situation to what I described earlier. Mind you the V5 has down as the maximum breaked weight when towing as 750 and unbreaked as 2800.

Kevin, Check these boys out. A lot of options and well made. http://www.hardtopsuk.com/hardtops-and-accessories/Toyota/Hilux-vigo-mk8-11/double-cab/TVD814

Pretty much what Ben said. Saying that I have been on the runner 75% of the time recently, having flown in the bone for the previous 18 months. I think now though my decision is based on the tree and task at hand, plus the rope I would choose to complete the task.

Colin furze has some great vids out there. The 600cc tuktuk. Pulse jet powered objects. Turbo bbq. Turbo drift trike... The list is endless.

Thought it was a bit out of your way to pop from Maidenhead to Bromley. Sorry, not got any wood for you I'm afraid.
-
Maidstone or Maidenhead? If it's the latter it is a bit of a trek to Bromley,let alone Margate.

Use a narrower diameter line to get the most out of the zig zag. There are many ropes but I am sure someone will suggest Blue Tongue. Cue, Silky.

Might be a bit expensive but I bet the quality would speak for itself.

I remember seeing a program about an old boy who made them for the Royal Carridges. Failing that maybe Mark's brother has a contact... He is in charge of the Horse, Carridges and guns in the Royal Artillery.

It may be a pantin plucking the fibres on the rope making it where quicker. Do you use a pantin or foot ascender?

The mass in Service of My 65 plate Hilux DC 3.0 Invincible says 2045kg. SO with the reduction of drivers weight and a similar figure for the fuel it comes in well under 2040kg. Yet on my documentation the vehicle has a taxation class of Light Goods Vehicle. So should this be in the DPV category or LGV?

Agree entirely, but I thought that was last weeks news;) He looked a mess considering he only faced about 3 minutes.
-
No details will be released till after the HSE investigation is concluded. Terrible news. RIP.

Around here, any blue badge holder (disabled or not) just displays the badge and parks anywhere they want. Usually on the single yellows. It is cheaper for them to get a blue badge down the pub rather than pay the residents parking fees each year.

Nice work my friend. At first I wondered what all the moaning and groaning was about? I thought you may have found a woodpecker hole or something. Later in the video I realised it was the exertion on you when at the ends of those limbs. Keep em coming mate.

What model Stevie or are you being sarcastic in saying you automatically put on your chain break with out thinking?

I agree entirely Tim. On the Oak failure, the line was running over a bit of epicormic growth and no amount of flicking/ the stick trick/alpine butterfly/ swearing at the bloody thing would make it settle down into the crotch. Hence we loaded it like we did and it was Oak... what could possibly go wrong..? It definitely made me more aware of the forces acting on a tie in point. The second time was a scabby Ivy covered Lime tree. Line ran through a lovely anchor. The whole leader tore out a metre or two below the crotch my line went through. So one minute I was ascending and then the leaves were suddenly going in the opposite direction and the garage roof was getting closer. It was all in slow motion. I stopped before I hit the roof looked up to see the leader lodged in an crotch. Not this one was definitely bombproof so I just carried on climbing and cut the whole mess out.
