    Comfy spikes.

    geoff replied to geoff's topic in Climbers talk

    Thanks guys,think it will be the gekos,probably stick to ally,its a material I understand,bit worried the carbons might get knocked about in the truck.

    Pics 1,2 & 6 looks like you could take 40% out of the height at a push if they want it hard,the others are a bit sparse on growth low down,so maybe 30% off the green canopy. Pic5 looks like it could cope with a 40 % total height reduction too. Just my opinion,will be interested to see what others think,so take no notice of my thoughts. Maybe less if we get a good drought as in my area.

    Your safe mate,the crab would not get past Hadrians wall without severe postal disruption,or even industrial action.

    Ok I have been using my Buckingham shin busters for too long,& as my bones show more due to age & neglect,let alone these thin material C.S. trousers & boots we get nowadays,what are the best ish spikes out there. I want an enclosed solid shin support for my bony pins,& a good hold in the wood when working,Getting a lot of spike work at the moment & fed up with low end kit in this area. Dont Want carbon super sonics,just a very good ally setup that gives good support with skinny legs.

    Wow, What do you have for lunch! For breakfast I do favour the top slice of bread,the crust, with butter & honey,but Butler has got me thinking.

    well I'm in,my prize for the winner..the man that gets the thread locked after doing nothing wrong,no mod intervention,(thats cheating),will be either a frozen crab (may defrost on route), or a sparkling silky saw. Up the prizes as we go along?

    Anyone had first hand experience with cellox on a major bleed? Didn't it save a climbers life a couple of months back when he cut his neck,seem to remember this on the news.

    Thats an interesting take on it Alec. From where I sit,(low on the knowledge ladder),it kind of makes sense.

    Fig tree sap

    geoff replied to Timbur's topic in General chat

    I too have had no reaction to the milky fig sap,& have had it all over my arms.

    Pm sent predator,if we cant get them back from the courier,I will get another pair sent out. Nothing to worry about,you did right,the courier lost them.

    I love seeing a transit getting abused..great job!
  20. geoff
    You been drinking again mate?
  21. geoff
    Seems that way. There's good & bad in all walks of life,& to manipulate this fact to discredit the good is,erm...manipulation,which creates a weak argument imo. I respect any faith,or lack of it!
  22. geoff
    Ah,feeling slightly better about it now thanks. It was one of those ones when your just not sure if you got it.
  23. geoff
    Thanks for the advise,I bet it does turn smoothly,sharp tools to stop it fluffing! Must get my lathe spinning again,done no work with it for a good year.
