It,s seems like a long time ago now Johny...i,ve got great memories of my time in Otley...learned a lot. Saw some beautiful scenery. Really is God,s own country. And i,m glad to see you finally sorted out all that mountain of wood in yer yard...And your now the Chevin Log Baron

Wilst down in Poole working with Yaffle Trees we gave a man in a van a load of logs....he was a fisherman and returned later with a live lobster we named Larry..Peter dispatched Larry that night.He was delicious.

This is getting worrying...maybe a replaceable "Sheath" for the dyneema may be an idea that ART should look into...

I am right down the country next weekend...shame cos would be good to link with you and Dan again and i really enjoyed the last reccy climb and got some great photos.Your tree looks like one lovely big green climbing frame with a sweet anchor point.

Yes Mark...i reckoned about 125....ish.. That,s the first time i have used it and need to practice the setting up..but like Rob says it,s a good bit of measuring device once sussed..

......Eel pie is much bigger and round the other side. It,s has a boatyard,rowing club residents (including the man who invented the wind up radio and several artists workshops...it,s an amazing place...anyhoo back to the tree...i,ve installed "Forest tools tree measurer" Which is complicated to use so next app i got was "X Clinometer" which is just a digital spirit level and compass/gradient device...but best app i got is "Smart measure"...it measured it at 144 feet...but i have hearedd of one in Hampshire that is 170 feet tall....still it is a very tall Plane.
