  1. I am sure that some people attract biteing insects more than others, I heard that eating garlic keeps them at bay, but I don't buy it, I eat a lot and get bitten a lot.

     

    Anyone found a good method of fly/mozzy control?

  2. I used to get one shave from a mach 3 blade, so use a whal commercial hair clipper plug in job, the ones barbers and hair dressers use, I use it on my bonce once a month with a grade 4 (just the sides) and me mush, once a week or so without the grader on, just leaves a stubble.

  3. Its that easy! to be fair, i did it before your post went up. Your review makes for good reading and if I don't win I think one of these will be finding its way into my armory.

     

    Good luck to all those that enter, but I hope my luck is in!

  4. t435 has a bad reputation, ms150t may be an option, or as spud says a 200t second hand.

     

    I have just decided to upgrade from my 192t, as it lacks a bit of umph for take downs, but it still does the job, will be getting a t540xp as they have a bigger set!

  5. If petzl have sent out a statement regarding the problems with the zigzag and have made a recall on them they have covered there backs so if anyone continues to use it and it fails then surely that person won't get any come back and is putting there safety at risk if they have any problems after the date which were given for recall etc. Am I correct in thinking that?

     

    I think that the statement was only released online? I didn't get a letter from the dealer about my one, as I doubt they send them, but to assume that all climbers use the net, or would go looking online for this info, is an assumption too far imo, dealers know who has purchased them, that info should be passed to petzl and letters sent imo.

  6. I am looking at getting something like these, but I am not very technicaly minded with gadgets and the like.

     

    When you have blue tooth sets, do you need a bluetooth phone to act as the "radio", or does it have a transmitter and reciever in it and no need for a fancy mobile?

     

    Sorry if this sounds dense, but I have been living under a rock for 10 years and technology has passed me by!:confused1:
