How amazing!
But is it suitable for multi-use?  

Probably also a bit wide to get down Poachers and OHA

No, but just got a sales email from Maplin with them on. I assume he's  been on about them too?

Club Ladders? ;-)

john, i imagine they would fit down either ok. Just not sure about the length - 4.5m.

If they were 10m i'd be buying one just to see.
