Stump grinding could work, but you’d need a chunk of money to set up.

A cheap movement sensor alarm would be a lot easier.

I threatened a firm of solicitors with this a good few years ago and they paid up straight away, but didn’t have to go through with it. I don’t know the exact legalities, but I would expect it would be a civil rather than police case.

@MattyFmight know?
-
@billpierce just seen this on FB if it’s any use?
-
Nice caveat! I’m sure people do, but they’d never tell you.

This seems to have slipped in under the radar a bit. Anyone got any gen? ISC APEX Rope Wrench | Sorbus International WWW.SORBUS-INTL.CO.UK

Responding to this!

Oi! I’m from Otterburn! 😂

Millennial lombardy with issues deciding what it wants to be?

Why? They would just say your £100 was only worth £70 and demand £30 extra.

The game is that the money is better off in their account than yours. (For them, obviously).

Has anyone climbed with two lines and that’s saved there bacon
Mark Bolam replied to Newtons's topic in General chat
I’ve used two ropes before when I really NEEDED that dodgy anchor. SRT has largely made this redundant, though. Bomber main anchor and the rest just slings and crabs, as many as you want, with minimum faff. -
Pretty much nailed it two posts in to my mind fellas!

I make you wrong on this one Eggs my old mate. Dave is spot on. We aren’t talking families from war torn countries here, a massive percentage are young Albanian males. They need shipping back, sharpish. Apparently plans are afoot to change the rules within the next week or so. Illegals will be housed in old Pontins camps rather than hotels. That will learn them!

That all depends on the size and condition of your willy and how well you can wave it.

It’s not a pissing contest mate. I’ve winged it for a bit on 30’ trees for a while, but I wouldn’t use it on anything where I got disco leg. Which is just stupid, because I’d be just as dead. I’ll PM you a pic next time it’s out. Please don’t post a pic of your flip line.
-
Again? We aren’t talking a ‘would this pass Loler’ question here Alex. It’s 50% FUBAR’d, and I shouldn’t be climbing on it.
-
That’s interesting mate. I’m currently on Flow for double with the ZZ and really like it. The hi-viz orange is a great colour in the tree, probably stands out more than the Atrax colours. I’ve got an annoying nick about 8m from the splice. It needs retiring to tag line duties really.
-
Seems a little harsh….. although possibly accurate.

As in mutilation? -
I’m following this with interest Al, I need a new rope for double as well. Atrax sounds great, need to feel it in my hand first.

Bisexual.

This seems pretty good.

It’s great for lighter climbers.
