    Give A Car: Easy charity fundraising?

    I'd only suggest using this sort of scheme for cars that are really properly clapped out and can't even be driven to a scrapyard. I had an old Corsa, that while it had it's foibles, would still have been useful to someone as a little runabout etc. Having read the literature on one of these...

    Steve Backshall SRT up tree

    Still taken from 22:38 as he heads up the tree from the ground. I've added the yellow highlight on the safety rope in the second frame. He seems to have got it sorted by the time he's higher up - presumably because someone on the ground has pulled it through...

    Possible movement in Ogof Draenen 2nd choke last weekend
