Have you done it, its not as bad as everyone makes out, but then I'm smaller than your average.

How does it compare to those two beauties?

Remember once rigging Giants and then goin to Oxlow and doing the through trip. When we got to Garlands pot no ladder hmm. Then a light and the farmer shouted down 'you know you can't do this go back'. He then noticed me (local lad at that time) and said 'and you Fox should know better'. So we went down Crabwalk hid round the corner waited froze waited and then climbed out when he had gone and legged it over the fields. Never did understand why when willing to pay the normal amount we were not allowed to do the through trip. The climb up Garlands was interesting
Mrs Trellis said:"Old man" Watson was George iirc. He was the one who got Joe Revell to work on Giant's.
As for the first throught the connection I'm fairly sure Westy, the Gills, Henry Mares, Geoff Dobson would have been there or thereabouts. It must be in the Eldon records somewhere.
