Title: Poss bit of SRT before Mendips trip??
Post by: Tony Salusbury on Jun 22, 2013, 12:28 AM
Would it be possible to pop to Pepe's one night before we go on the Mendips trip? I would like to use my kit BEFORE Mendips so I can iron out any problems. I've been dangling off my pergola in the back garden to tighten up my cows tails, but would like to have a proper practice somewhere.

I don't want to run into problems 'in the field' and hold people up whilst having to make adjustments.

I've ordered 20m of rope for me to have a play somewhere (will prop a ladder against the side of the house) and hopefully all will be sorted.

I wouldn't worry too much Tony, there are only 3 real SRT caves on Mendip and one of those is currently restricted...  ;)
