Anyone? Moved to Skipton area and need to meet new folk

TENT NOW SOLD Edit: Obviously, this is a Coleman not a Vango but I can't edit the thread title, sorry for any confusion. Superb condition, only been used for one moot and a few other trips. £39 posted or £29 if you can collect (I'm currently nr Skipton) Great little tent, more roomy...

I now have the tent with me so should be able to get some pics up soon.

NOW SOLD Full specs here Silicon coated nylon fly, approx 1.87kg overall weight. I bought this a couple of months ago on ebay, but don't think I'm going to get any use out of it this year so it's up for sale. I paid £123 (including postage). RRP is around £280 Price dropped to £95 (including...

How's the back and the job situation, either any better?

Fingers crossed for you. My job, well, it's certainly more challenging than the last one. I've been exposed to more new things in the last 3 weeks than I was in the last 3 years. I'm currently working on a data conversion routine in Visual Web Developer. Is your back any better?

Good news on the getting better front, doc sounds a bit crap vague though. Still might be worth visiting a physio though if it seems to be taking a while to sort out.

I was given exercises to strengthen my transverse abs and my butt (gluteus medius) and hip adductor stretches. The physio treatment 'fixed' it straight away.

Get thee to the doc (or perhaps a physio) post haste. This time last year I 'hurt my back' (probably triggered by carrying a huge piece of kitchen worktop down a loft ladder!). Couldn't sit for very long, struggled to get in an d out of the car, couldn't roll over in bed, couldn't put socks...

Erm, yes, I seem to have moved in the wrong direction (which hasn't exactly impressed my worrying mother). It's very pretty up here though, my lodgings are less than a mile from the Yorkshire Dales National Park boundary. I'm looking forward to getting out on my mountain bike. After four days I...

I was forwarned by the handbook and actually managed to look quite smart, I'd done ironing and everything! So, are you back studying then, what is it you're doing?

Just moved further north for a new job It's looking unlikely I can get time off to make it worthwhile heading down :( so I'm gonna have to pull out

How goes it in sunny Sharpness? I have moved (well, sort of) to Yorkshire. Got a new job, first day today. I apparently have to look professional at work.

They had loads in the stockport store today. Great value at £19.95 with 2 poles included. These seem to disappear from the shelves in the summer (well, they did when I wanted one)

No need to be sarcastic Rik, I was a bit hurried with my post but was just trying to point out the caldera was conceived as complete system not a generic windshield. Using other, different types of stoves*, change the height from flame to base of pan, give out too much heat within the confines...

The caldera cone was designed as a system with the stove it comes with - a chimney stove. A guide to something for something here http://users.sisqtel.net/losthiker/pikastove

Nowt wrong with bolts and lycra if that is, er, the 'tradition'. You know full well though if trad routes in this country were retro bolted they would probably end up ruined by sheer weight of foot traffic. Think how polished the starts of many popular routes already are.

You are trolling, right? To advocate bolting traditional routes is basically owning up to being inadequate.
