I'll get a copy of the pic off to the forensic lab. It does have all the hallmarks of a hyper that can't sit still for five minutes.

Why do they call it a work climb, like a fool I went first on Friday when it was blowing a gale and raining and climbed like I was at work but a bit quicker. I could of had another go on Saturday but did'nt see much point in plebbing around on a prussik after watching the experts. So I got the new gear, will have plenty of time to get used to it and next is Capel haha. 10.19 damn, I knew I should of worn me other socks.

Sorry mate I did'nt mean to get you excited.

You must be working for a right tightwad if your climbing on gecko lol. It must be someone I know.
-
Only in your minds eye LOL.

Its all about technique Andy

Thanks Robert, its not as neat as the spring cut cos I left it a tad longer to give it protection over the winter. I've told him once a year is enough but hey its his hedge. It was covered in little tight spider webs and I tried not to disturb them as much as possible cos they're good for keeping the little sap sucking aphids at bay. I know I hate hedges but I dont want it to die cos its dosh for me.

One of the perks mate, it was that hot here today I'd have worn the mankini if I'd remembered to take it lol.

The carb is already dogged on that machine Stevie, you have to build the revs up then keep it flat out or it dies. I wore climbing gloves all day but my hands are still tingling.

Only 2 John, the gate to my yard is only 50yds from the job.

Todays job. Hedge trimming, you either love it or hate, personally I hate it. Loads of work for very little profit but its regular. This is the second time I've done this hedge this year, not a good time to trim connies cos of spring burn but the customer insists so his business premises look smart all year.

Thanks would have been easier to decipher, but perhaps I read it wrong. No harm done.

Just trying to help:sneaky2:

We've all climbed on prussiks at some stage and I'm assuming that everyone knows of Dr. Karl Prussik who developed the knot during the war due to lack of piano wire, thus enabling him to tune his piano on broken strings. So was there a system before or was it all free climbing?
-
And the rest!
-
This is better!

Hello Felix, welcome to the forum and fair play for making the break. I know Steve and Mark but unfortunately neither one are on here. I've not seen Steve for years but I'm always badgering Mark to have a look on here.

You aint wrong, in my rush to get to work I nearly tripped the secondary defence and blew me own legs off haha.

Yeah but it was the wife that was spinning it and she's got arms like Arnold.

Solid dog Buzz. My little 13yr old jack looked like that once.
