  1. A scots pine with what looked like Phaeolus schweinitzii although the fruiting bodies were old. A fair bit of decay when I cut the stem down. .
  2. Smallish euc with lots of stems .
  3. I just want to say how great the service is from fr jones. I bought 2 pairs of gloves and 1pair came with 2 right handed ones so I emailed to tell them and they replayed saying they would send 2 lefts one free of charge! Excellent folks, 1st call for gear in future!
  4. Sound looking job mate
  5. No bother,Il keep at it with the 13mm but in the new year I wanna get something longer and thinner
  6. Ye I know that from climbing on a vt. Will having 13mm rope make a big difference to the smoothness of the wrench?
  7. Ye the oc is very stiff to use I have got some Yale about the place il try with it
  8. Do you mean shorter hitch cord Ian?
  9. I don't think so at all, it is tragic though. Radio dj's prank loads of people which leads to no harm and I don't think this one incident should change that.
  10. They are like family really so loyal
  11. Stella is 3 1/2 and Eileen is 3 months so she is still a fair handful. Great craic though
  12. Got 2 spaniels myself he is gorgeous
  13. So I have a mess around with a tether and I've come to this I dunno if it's because I'm using 13mm rope but there is a fair bit of friction when I release the hitch and its quite jolly as well
  14. Good on ya having a go when I was in oz and started climbing the big eucalyptus it was hard, nothing to grip on some of them and they are massive!
  15. Any pics mate?
  16. Is that's your missus's mini al?
  17. Got a tree magic 2, the only annoying thing is that the legs loops can't be opened
  18. What is it made from albere? Is it a sling underneath rubber?
  19. That would be sound cheers
  20. What did you make your stiffy from danavan?
  21. It's makes sense that mate il have to try that cheers bud.
  22. There just the ones I threw together yesterday
  23. So been trying out the RW. It's very different trying to use it compared to dDrt. When I ascend(badly) the hitch doesn't drop fully with my weight on it until I release it. I've put some pics up below if anyone can give me some advice. My tether isn't great either I'm just using the op to get me going
  24. Haven't been their in years but great spot, great photos x
