    Books

I will be completely honest and say that I have picked a few books up but after a few pages find them pretty heavy going and lose interest!!! I am trying to broaden my knowledge of cave formation, general geology that side of stuff...

    Petal chest harness

    Whilst tightening my chest harness yesterday the buckle snapped!!!! Not ideal when I'd still got 2 pitches but managed to improvise. It's the male part of the buckle that has broken anyway I can fix it????? It's sewn in so would have to un pick it to replace but obviously that's dodgy!!!!
