Possibly unenforceable (legally or practically) writing. See several pages ago. -
Useful post.

I assume it’s fairly gradual on the pedal? Not like a mini boom offset where you press press press and get nothing and then suddenly the pedal gives and you dent the side of a house I can imagine it being very intuitive on a nice big rocking footplate pedal like a wah wah (guitar effect pedal).

Mark’s life is a fairytale. After seventeen glasses of the merlot that cruise ships use to swab the jacuzzis, his engineering degree just vanishes.

Beaters’ day so Sailor was standing around watching me shoot rather than tearing up woodland. Total twat, start to finish. This photo taken just after charging up to a set of picking-up labs like a pissed up blindside flanker wearing a motorbike helmet. I trod a massive tent peg in, put the lead over it and was sorting out my ear pro. Looked up and saw him at the end of his lead and still going. Couldn’t work out how. Snapped his collar. Bellend.

and some peanuts. Cheese to follow. No wine. Shop ****************ed me. Double Maxim is Sunderland’s competitor to Newcastle Brown Ale. I prefer it. Played a gig there this evening. No cash pay but two beers a man. My bandmates don’t drink and drive, the cowards. I should have worked this out earlier. I could have had eight.

I invent rooms in houses. I can picture, clear as day a fifth bedroom at my grandma’s house, on the left after the bathroom. I can describe the decor. I can picture standing in the doorway. It doesn’t exist. I’m not sure it even came into mental existence in a dream. Give it a few years of not being able to occasionally walk the hallway and see it doesn’t exist and I’ll probably start thinking it was really there.

Do you do a lot of tabbing in and out or tend to set and forget for a few minutes like the offset?

I’m currently eating somewhere around my seventieth bowl of pheasant curry since 1st October. You don’t know you’re born.

Much ado about nothing in Durham.

This is probably a good time to mention that I'm designing a rigging device. Hopefully have it for sale by the next APF. Will lift and lower way more than one mother.

Good job, archivist. You know, I think it only has the 2x45kg plates on in that shot. I have another 90kg one but it makes the operator's platform too high and my back hates it.

I can't find the picture of mine carrying a scaffold tower with my mum on. That's an advert for them.

The correct term there would be swivel.
-
Side point. I'd call it free rotate rather than knockabout. Knockabout is a dangle grab thing to me. Knockabout. From a thread on here about knockabout grabs as it happens.

Probably twenty this morning across the lower 48.

Dan. Check your messages.

Just Sailor bringing joy to all he meets, with his comedy stick routine.

At least nobody's dog got shot.

One argument @kevinjohnsonmbe had with the taxman was something like benefit in kind tax due on logs he got for early jobs. Come back and tells us a story, Kevin.

Could easily be actors.
-
Yeah. More serious than I can be arsed with either if I'm honest, Mick. We've no doubt had the discussion on here before, once or fifty times.

Right. Such as if these qualifications were a moderately useful yardstick for establishing baseline competence? But they're not. Total jokers pass them, routinely, not as exceptions. Everyone you speak to has a story of the guy that had the ticket but literally couldn't get off the ground. I do get what you're saying, that it's not a binary thing. Think of it like a balance-of-probabilities standard of proof though. They don't meet the standard. Then it is binary. Industry trust in them is well below the 50% it would have to be for them to be even in the running. Don't make me start a poll...

I'm being open minded, Mick. Humour me.
