  1. Sorry cousin.
  2. Just melt the end with a lighter. It should be ok. I have had ropes pass Loler with worse.
  3. I know quite a few of the early fellas who trained with Toddy and Master A in Manchester during the eighties. What was your mates name Liam?
  4. Good stuff... Kieran has put on a number of events at the O2. They are showing all three shows, 1 a week, so get Grace to put a series record on the go.
  5. Robert, If you can check out the link for the show on Sky tonight 9.30pm. The series is organised by Kieran Keddle... Alan's bro, (but they fell out a long time back) He is an ex World Champ and now promotes, trains and keeps trying to have comeback fights. The 18 y/old girl - Iman, is supposed to be the real deal. Not seen many of her fights but apparently she is impressing everyone and still only 18!
  6. Check out the Explosion fight Series on Sky tonight. Action from the O2 Arena a couple of months ago. The event has some great fighters on the card and look out for Iman Barlow. She is only 19 and already has a number of world titles. Sky Channel 219 (I think) My Channel. 9.30pm
  7. Here is another one. Buakhaw vs Dhzabar. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ThAQylmofYs&feature=g-vrec]Buakaw Por Pramuk vs Dzhabar Askerov @ Yokkao Extreme 2012 Full-HD - YouTube[/ame]
  8. Yeah Dekker was a legend! That Dutch knee master looked juiced to the max! Not surprised he is banned from UFC. Something a wee bit different... Thailand vs Myanmar (Burma) 2011 celebrations. Burmese boxing is similar to MT, but with an added twist. if a fighter gets KO'd his seconds have to revive him for the second bout. I think a boxer fights 3 rounds and it is automatically a draw if no one is knocked out in the last round. No gloves, just wraps, Headbutts aloud!

  9. It's knackered, make it safe and then leave it be. Exactly as Tom said.
  10. Maybe if your very lucky, there will be a tree for you to use it in instead. Food for thought!
  11. Get yourself a Jetwash. Blast it and get all the bark an mess off it. Flog it at a garden sale/carboot sale as a fancy garden sculpture. You may even make money on it.
  12. All the best on your journey. I hope the treatment goes as well as can be. Pma all the way! Good luck!
  13. Congrats on getting marred, I mean married! Go on have kids, you know you want to! Back on topic. Well done for getting the job done. Bet your glad it is done and dusted? Just don't quote for the works in 7 or 8 years time.
  14. Liking the miniature groundie in Hi vis. Do child labour rules exists in Stanley?
  15. Anywhere mate. Even on a leg loop if you want. It just keeps the tail of the rope away from pointy things.
  16. It has nothing to do with the rope construction or longevity of a given rope. If you spike it you spike it, end of! Be more careful where you place the gaffs or put a small krab on your harness and run the tail of the rope away from you and the gaffs. I have a number of ropes, including Imori. Not a problem and been using it since it was launched. Mind I try not to stick my gaffs into it!
  17. Nicely documented Rupe and good work.
  18. Rich Rule

    I heard at Capel, it was due to be launched at an arb fair in Deutschland in May!?! Has this now been put back?
  19. Tony, Stu is asking for help. I don't think he will bash you. Just looking for advice. Isn't this what it's about?
  20. Do you have pictures Stu? They would help with any diagnosis from the experts.
  21. I used to climb with a very experienced guy. He was good at everything and a joy to watch. If I ever got in an uncomfortable situation I used to visualise myself watching him from the ground and imagine how he would tackle and overcome. Worked for me. Not had the jitters for a while now, not sayin I won't again.
  22. I think it depends on your clientele. Corporate, H/A Local Authorities... may have been booking in a lot of work as it was spend up time in the years financials. The rain doesn't help. This time of year is generally slow. I think the increase in work due to budget spends at the end of the last financial year makes the drop this month more exaggerated.
  23. Haha, urban foxes - so cute!! Haha, they are vermin and nothing else. I cannot understand why the Program has been made. I even know the line producer of the show but I haven't had the heart to ask!
