  1. nptc. i made the mistake of getting the lantra first, now i want to get into climbing i need to take the nptc assessment too, should have just taken nptc in the first place.
  2. tree looks really nice, nothing damaged, good job as you say, a total nightmare for groundies!
  3. i took my cs38 today, i was really nervous as last night i read on here about having to do a pole rescue which we didnt even cover on the training. seems i worried over nothing as we only had to perform rescue A and B. heres how the assessment went questions about LOLER, PUWER, what to tell emer serv in case of accident etc, tied a 3 knot system on a single rope, tied a normal setup then up the tree, branch walk, rescue A and B. cup of coffee and a smoke:) im definitely going to try and get regular practice in, once a month or even every other month. if i ever need rescuing i want someone who knows what they're doing, not someone who stands there scratching their arse.
