The planning officer/department that allowed that lump of Lego to be built so close to that beautiful ?late medieval building should have been kicked into next week and back

Likewise; the tree surgeon's handbag

The Circus Bowline is a midline alternative to the Alpine, yes, but the Trucker's Hitch is for mechanical advantage

I've forgotten how to tie an Alpine Butterfly as I use the Farmer's Loop or Circus Bowline which is very reluctant to jam because every rope crossing point is 90°. It's as easy to set as an Alpine unless you're an expert who does it all the time

I didn't think this thread was so old Just seen my first one of the year; a bedraggled specimen on a phone wire There must have been sightings around the country earlier surely...? I also heard a cuckoo just once last week; presumably it was passing through

Good work
