  1. I'm not bothered. BRING IT ON!
  2. so i should ditch the snap hook and get a 3 way for the lanyard before the loler inspection? shame as its a nice bit of kit....
  3. great job for any london types - it would be a great escape from city life!
  4. my mate got his loler'd with the snap hook..... also
  5. my mate has the stein and says the padding cancels out the vents - gets really hot and sweaty and ends up stinking! has anyone used the edelrid helmet?
  6. This is mine. Snap hook on one end, stopper knot, micro pulley and distel (or some kind of similar friction knot...). much cheaper than the art positioner! about 35 quid all together
  7. i use the distel and micro pulley, works a treat (much better than the crap rope grabs at college). you can use it one handed and release under load.
  8. loving my new petzl - the big air vents make all the difference on days like this. really comfortable aswell
  9. I don't see the point of people wearing braces and a belt at the same time....
  10. I'm a lumberjack and i'm ok!
  11. i don't have kids. i'm 23, but i'm going to see the film! got the other two on dvd haha! i'll never grow up
  12. my nokia 6210 navigator has it built in, most new nokia's with gps will have it.
  13. tea all the way. white, no sugars if anyone ever makes me one
  14. i have a tree motion and as with any harness you get a bit of sag but just tighten up the waist a bit more, maybe wear the harness a little higher (increase the leg loop elastic). i don't seem to have a problem with it and i seem to forget its there until it knocks into a branch...
  15. you could do as i have just done. 10 week full time course, £1,800 - you get 30,31,38,39, basic first aid certificate and level 2 craftsmans award for theory etc. i would highly recommend it.
  16. i just got a new petzl helmet but may send it back and get this... Thirst Aid Helmet First Drink Drinks Drinking Helmets Hats Beers Can Cans Hat Beer Novelty Gift Plastic Tube Straw Red White Blue Yellow Guzzler UK Buy
  17. All it needs now is some BFG's!
  18. Nice. I want to do that but with an older style hi-lux - did you do the work yourself and how much would a conversion like that cost?
  19. my thoughts exactly...
  20. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfq_A8nXMsQ]YouTube - Everybody's Free to Wear Sunscreen! (ORIGINAL VERSION)[/ame]
  21. 200,000 20p's have been put into circulation without a date on them and are worth £50 each to collectors....(god knows why ) BBC NEWS | UK | Wales | South East Wales | Faulty 20p coins 'worth £50 each'
  22. harlyn bay is great! not too touristy, massive sandy beach and its a mile from our campsite (trevone cricket pitch).
  23. i'm going to cornwall in august for our usual camping trip. can't bloody wait! harlyn bay here i come!
  24. maybe not the nicest, but best for your insides and body as a whole
  25. you could send these messages via pm you know....
