Swildon's Hole - loose P Bolt

20 pitch, the middle bolt is twistable for 1-2mm. Reading past notes its not an instant problem as my rigging included all 3 bolts.
 
DP, the bolts at the pitch in Swildon's Hole have been tested with a special bit of kit doing a multiple KN lateral pull; although you are right to check (as everyone should each time) and also arrange your rigging off more than one bolt (as you did).
