    Why are they? Because they do a thankless job? Imagine how built up areas would be without parking restrictions.
  2. Joe Newton
    So you parked on yellow lines for an hour and a half and got a ticket, basically? How bloody dare they?!
  3. Joe Newton
    Inonotis on ash I'm guessing.

    Fair enough, i couldn't be bothered with threading the tail of my line though Any reason you don't like the pinto?
  5. Joe Newton
    Looks nice, Paul, but a pinto is midline attachable.
  6. Joe Newton
    Most people can reach around 8' anyway!
  7. Joe Newton
    That's why they had to come down.

    There's a 4 way crab available...

    Sure they do, for me. The VT is a pretty sporty knot. It's self tends well, and is responsive. It just doesn't always bite, which can be worrying if you're new to the system. I guess it depends on how many wraps/braids you put on. A distel or Knut bites more reliably, making it more suitable to people getting used to the system. Doesn't always self tend as well as the VT though. Forget the o-rig. Get a pantin instead.

    For £500 he could choke me with the seatbelt! Wouldn't be the first time I've pleasures myself on a bus.
  11. Joe Newton
    Why pointless? It's a discussion.
  12. Joe Newton
    At a guess: hungover and left his spikes at home.

    Don't her balls tickle your chin? The tape sling thing wasn't tight enough round my chest. Then again I don't have tits like yours.
  14. Joe Newton
    Depends how big and tough I am I guess.
  15. Joe Newton
    Well done that man!
  16. Joe Newton
    I don't know how long you've been climbing, or using a hitch climber, but I'd say it was best not to jump straight to a VT. Try a Knut or Distel hitch first. More reliable.
  17. Joe Newton
    Success! No way was I paying £25 for a neck tether!
  18. Joe Newton
    It's pretty fluid. When I pull down from above the hitch, I pull all the way down to my hitch. Tend slack with other hand, and with the first hand, whilst still holding the rope, just nudge the hitch upwards with the heel of my palm before letting go. Unless you climb on a loose VT this is probably academic to you.

    Haha, not "don't do cocaine", just don't get caught!

    The 59 Sound by The Gaslight Anthem is one I have thought of.
  21. Joe Newton
    You ruined the game! Fair enough though. I miss doing BJJ, never was great at striking though. Don't know why, I just really didn't like getting punched.
  22. Joe Newton
    Well your answer will dictate how sarcastic/offensive my next comment is
  23. Joe Newton
    Are you the pretty one or the guy with half a rib cage?
  24. Joe Newton
    "Too beaucoup!" Okay, so that was Vietnam. I'm a despicable racist.
  25. Joe Newton
    That's nothing to be proud of. They're small, flexible, and relatively easy to put into boxes. American boxing. That's an impressive hobby.
