think we should will be ok with this stuff

Rope Diameter	Minimum Breaking Strength	Safe Load (Safety Factor 12)	Weight
(in)	(mm)	(lb[SUB]f[/SUB])	(kN)	(lb[SUB]f[/SUB])	(kN)	(lb[SUB]m[/SUB]/ft)	(kg/m)
1/4	6	1125	5.00	93.8	0.417	0.01	0.02

Mind you, it is a bit frayed in places

So the fact that I'm double the safe load weight shouldn't be an issue then. Even if I eat the sausage reinforcement.

Due to a hectic week and now weekend, we can't make it. I'm sure Spandit and Hugo will share my news.

We MAY make it one of the days but we're not counting on it.

Hope everything is ok mate. Fingers crossed we'll see you.

 

[Kepis]

Hope everything is ok mate. Fingers crossed we'll see you.

Ditto, hope everything is ok?

Widu, do you want me to give Spandit the money for my part of the chute costs at the weekend if you dont make it down?

 

[widu13]

T news is good news- a rather spiffing job for a reasonably well known survival aids supplier I'll have to watch my affiliations now! First week this week, hence the chaos and we've also decided to sell our motorhome , so if anyone has £23k to drop on one let me know. The weekend will be spent cleaning and clearing out the MH.

If anyone is desperate to give me chute money, I'm sure Spanders will hold it for me. I owe him a couple of £s anyway

 

[Kepis]

Nice one Widu, chuffed for you, nice to hear about something going right for people for a change.

 

[Simon H]

Nice one Andy, pleased for you mate. Shall we postpone the leatherwork until we have the full compliment? It's going to take a day and with late arrivals on Saturday, and some no shows, there's not many people to take part/advantage of it. Seems silly to do it twice. What do you lot think?

 

[jackcbr]

That's great news, wish I had the cash for the camper van, sweet little home from home

 

[Hugo]

I reckon there is some whippet racing going on somewhere in Sussex, cleaning the van indeed.

 

[Hugo]

Is this correct at time of printing

[spandit]

I was looking forward to breaking my version of your news...

I'm willing to hold any money! I can bring the 'chute on Saturday if needs be as it looks like a wet one!!

 

[Hugo]

Robin, do you still want a canvas sack for your chute, if so what measurements do you want it to be.

 

[spandit]

Very kind, Allen, but I bought a big holdall for it in a charity shop the other day

 

[Rico]

Nearly had to pull out due to no transport, but Jack's kindly offered to drop me off on Friday (cheers mate!). I'll have some old cypress logs for the fire too.

I'm easy. Any ideas for what we do instead?

Save some for Saturday night. That way I won't ave to do any fire wood collecting.

Tbh, it'll probably all go on Fridays giant bonfire. Who's bringing the wicker-man?

 

[Dark Horse Dave]

Just taken the car down the garage. Fingers crossed it'll be ready for the weekend.......
