<p>Haha, yeah worked that out after a while. How you keeping?</p>

<p>Not yet, I'll get in touch with him next week. I reckon he'd be up for it though</p>

<p>I use a 5m with a hitch and pulley, negates the need for a cut away, with 5m you can cut the hitch and pull slack, plus i've been on a lot of poles that 3m isn't big enough! I don't much like soft links as it defeats the object of a wirecore. I haven't heard good things about wirecore and art positioners, but i don't know much about the cinch.</p>

<p>Sorted, see you saturday</p>

<p>Will do. Have you arranged anything with dexta for picking him up?</p>

<p>Rubbish! Only if the M11 and M25 are moving properly, which they never are! Do you want me to meet you in the city? Can park at my brother's on newmarket street</p>

<p>Yeah, think he's somewhere on the A11 so shouldn't be difficult. Around 2 and 3/4 hours to Watford I think, maybe less if you go A505/A1</p>

<p>Yes please. Dexta (andy) from newmarket wanted to ride together, have you got another seat? He's the guy who came to the climb in the snow the other year</p>

<p>Cheers, maybe Sunday then or it can wait til I next see you. Going away tomorrow until Saturday, big tree measuring expedition, I'll try to get the nomadics name in on it.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>Had some interest in that redwood and your logosol, I'm thinking of trying an Arbtalk reccy milling day in the summer, hopefully can get a wood mizer there too. Would you be up for it?</p>

<p>Do you want your aspen spout?</p>

<p>Had a thought about the bad boards. The angle we were following wasnt a right angle, twas' obtuse so obviously we were going to end up with mis shapen planks. Doh!</p>

<p>Which ben is this?</p>

<p>Yep, found that out! I'm not planning on relying on milling but I've got a big plan of my own to achieve too so it'll be good to have a bigger mill</p>

<p>Yeah I'm off till the 3rd so whenever really. Got the 36 to test the water, getting a fair bit of work for it now so I'm considering an 88 with a 48 mill.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>You going to the climb in epping?</p>

<p>Yeah I've had the Alaskan for a few months now. Just took delivery of the welly James Hoddy took down too! Be interested to see yours</p>

<p>Cool, the vid isn't showing on your YouTube yet. Don't get what you mean with footage,.you doing two separate vids? I guess all will become clear when its uploaded</p>

<p>You'll love the uni! It's terrifying to start with but once you get the hang its awesome. Also, it self tails as good as a sj!</p>

<p>Balls! I meant to show you the TCIA Srt best practice guide. Got it through earlier this week</p>

<p>Nice, did I get the stuff with the tripod right? I really hope I wasn't pausing the drops and filming us setting up. You'll probably have footage of my mincy mud running too!</p>

Hello mate, any of you lads coming up for the climb tomorrow?

How many are coming on saturday? Might bring a young lad I've been working with

That's the one

Can you bring that blue stein belay jobbie too? I may be onto something...

Cool, see you there. Have you got a tandem? I've got an idea....

Take a gamble on the 11th, if the weather is poor, we could postpone.
