I got a wicked vest tan yesterday out at work. Lovely weather. Lashing down this morning and cancelled work at it was a couple of tip rj's on horse chestnuts. Ill save that for a sunny day thanks. Oh to have the benefit of hindsight. It is sunny now and has been from about 11.30.

I recently watched bother series of Monkey and the Watermargin. First bmx was an xm9, had drum brakes. Then a Raleigh chrome burner. I bought this for my oldest son for chrimbo last year. I think I like it more than him... Have you seen what the Old school bmx'er go for on eBay?

If it is that light then surely you don't need any friction device. Or if you do then just use a natural crotch... Rope dependent of course.

I dont watch it that much really, but I did catch an episode where the they were having an Audit for the falling licenses, if I remember. The head faller was a Scot, who was in his 50's and had been in Canada around 30 years. I bet it was you wasn't it? Just own up, we won't laugh that much! :001_tt2:

To be fair mate, axemen is a farce but even though it is dramatised every week to make it look life or death, Heli logger seems to be a little bit less yahoo. If you know what I mean.

You mentioned you were Scottish and had worked in Canada... Were you the falling supervisor on Heli Loggers when they had their audit working on Vancouver Island?

About 4 or 5 old school BMX's. They would have been worth a mint if I still had them now. Subaru Impreza Rally Wagon, Prodrive, Ltd Edition. Fiat Coupe 2.0 20v Turbo. Went like stink in a straight line just don't try and turn with your foot down.

Depending on the angle of the gangle... Get the groundie to untie the piece and clip a krab (if your using 1) to your climbing line. Hold the tail of the climbing line taught and then pull the working end of the rigging line. The rigging line will zip up to you... just be careful the groundie don't pull too hard on your climbing line and pull you off your perch if you are in a precarious position.

RIP Jose' Bro. My thoughts go out to all involved and who knew your brother.

After a hard wet day at work. Ballistics were hung up on the chippers etc to dry out before the next day at work. We tie wrapped the inside of the balistic material as tight as possible and on certain brands it is unnoticeable from the outside. When the owner of the trousers tries to put them on they will usually fall over. Works really well on the larger type of groundie... like a weable falling over, only they don't pop back up!

No shortage of 'corn beef legs' in the winter.

Rec climb West Worcestershire / Hfds / Shropshire border 20th April

Jack needs a brain bucket. -
Mate, how hard is it to grasp? The manufacturer have said to stop using so why are you still climbing on it? Fwiw, if it fails you only have yourself to blame as they have issued the stop. So what if you have the o ring of a Johny on it to stop it rotating... Do you also run with scissors aswell..?

Zigzag incident official Petzl statement
Rich Rule replied to Mark_Skyland's topic in Skyland Equipment
Or just do as requested and stop climbing on the device until you hear more from the manufacturer. -
I did a reduction yesterday based on a consultants report. The consultant specified such a small amount to be removed that the TO on discussion. Said it was minimal and no need to apply for consent of works. Really was a pointless exercise but the customer was happy and we got paid.

I live 40 minutes drive away. I didn't go as I had a feeling... It is a real shame.

20 people there? Oh dear what has happened to this show? If only the powers that be at Capel had been more proactive. I used to really enjoy this show. Unfortunately, unless the organiser pull their thumb out of their arse, I fear it will continue to dwindle...
