There is a £12 offer of abseiling in the lake district should be £35 that ends today on Social Living.
Expires next Sept so loads of time to use it. If you send me your email address I can send you the website or I will purchase for you if you have a problem. <img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /> We can make a weekend of it in the summer.

Thanks Jo - I like Teggs Nose <img src='theme/emoticon_smile.png' />

Ultreia (Jo & Alan) 21/03/2012 18:00

We are sorry to announce that due to circumstances beyond our control we are having to move the location of our planned abseils. The new location will be Tegg's Nose near Macclesfield, this change will affect all of our planned abseils from Millers Dale in 2012.

Your planned time and dates remain unchanged. The new abseil and walk location is an abandoned historic quarry and we have successfully abseiled here before. We are very sorry if this causes you any inconvenience, and hope you will enjoy your abseil experience with Large Outdoors.

Thank you.

The new address of the meeting location is:
Tegg's Nose Country Park
Buxton Old Road
Macclesfield
Cheshire
SK11 0AP

Ultreia (Jo & Alan) 03/02/2012 07:16

Hope you said that in jest Andydav use your male intuitive and seek out that Dragon. <img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' />

Ultreia (Jo & Alan) 02/02/2012 18:48

Oh he is <img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' />

Ultreia (Jo & Alan) 02/02/2012 13:52

Too late I have already met trouble <img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_evilgrin.png' />

Ultreia (Jo & Alan) 02/02/2012 08:30

Does this mean you have finished with my thread and I will no longer get notice on my phone saying I have a message. I get excited and find it's just you two having banter. Amusing as it is lol<img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' />

davem 01/02/2012 22:00

No problem mate. I don't think Scout would win a gould medals at the literacy olympics. I think six of the best might help her focus in future lol

just flexing my dap now !!!

downtoearth65 01/02/2012 17:49

oh dear andy it might be tooo late <img src='theme/emoticon_wink.png' />

davem 30/01/2012 14:48

What are your hire rates ? I think I might need them soon !!

Forever lost 29/01/2012 21:47

A slap lol

davem 29/01/2012 20:56

Hey ! and I dream of posh totty with a paper bag over her head.....lol

So what are your thoughts of a pat on the way in and on the way out ?

davem 29/01/2012 20:46

No, I normally call them "love or darling". I like to be a little more thoughtful and personal than that thank you Scout !!!!

But thanks for the tip that posh totty like their bottoms patted. All I need to do now is find one.lol

davem 29/01/2012 19:46

Ha ha, I just thought Scout sounded as if she has been a bit spoilt in the past.... Yer lives in Heswall, more millionares than anywhere else in the country,so that explains a lot even Macclesfield !!!!

You posh birds have difficulty understanding us country lads. Sorry who's this Debs !!!!lol

davem 29/01/2012 19:23

A cup of tea and bacon butties !!!!

Whats wrong with a pat on the bum and a "I'll call you ok"... I'm just an old fashioned lad at heart.

The Mind is Willing 29/01/2012 15:15

Insightfully said Scout <img src='theme/emoticon_smile.png' />
Me wonders if he will protest too much? <img src='theme/emoticon_smile.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_smile.png' />

Forever lost 25/01/2012 19:16

davem 25/01/2012 19:06

Ohhh, just forgot to say that Andydav's fortay is definatelly figures. !!!! ha haaa.

davem 25/01/2012 18:59

Well Scout if you can talk as well as you write then the rest of us aren't going to get a word in.

Never mind the paper bag I think I might have to bring a scolds bridle lol.

I think theres a bit of a sister act starting up here !!! hey security in numbers ladies.

downtoearth65 25/01/2012 18:23

Carpe Diem! 25/01/2012 17:26

Ultreia (Jo & Alan) 25/01/2012 07:15

Careful Davem girl scouts are dangerous <img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' />

davem 24/01/2012 20:34

God, typical woman always repeating herself !!! lol... or was that another echo

Ultreia (Jo & Alan) 23/01/2012 23:14

Catwalker it's not the tea towels you would have to watch out for if he saw what a gorgeous lion you are. <img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' />

davem 23/01/2012 22:37

Tee hee !

davem 23/01/2012 21:50

Ok mate next time I pop round I'll bring my own mug.

Yes catwalker I agree, but its not your back I'd be concerned about if I was you !!!! ha ha sorry mate that was a bit below the belt.

M G 22/01/2012 03:46

Welcome aboard scout, I see you are going to fit in well,with or without your paper bag, just watch you dont get any blisters again..........<img src='theme/emoticon_evilgrin.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_evilgrin.png' />

davem 21/01/2012 19:16

ok scout, I can vouch that Andyd is dog rough, even his cat has to have alchohol in its bowl before she will sit on his lap.lol, sorry bud, but i always think honesty is the best policy. ha haaa

davem 21/01/2012 12:53

Mmmmmm, the problem could be you seeing us though lol

landranger68 21/01/2012 10:07

Hi Scout,we will look forward to seeing you on our Abseiling experience.Unsure where it will actually be,but should it be Millers Bridge,expect wet feet<img src='theme/emoticon_tongue.png' />

davem 20/01/2012 21:14

Nop!!, sorry scout no eye holes, as you say its about trust. lol

The Mind is Willing 20/01/2012 12:33

Nice one Davem <img src='theme/emoticon_smile.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_wink.png' />

Ultreia (Jo & Alan) 20/01/2012 12:23

Scout I trust everyone, when I get chance to book the tickets I will book you a slot. Welcome to the site and looking forward to meeting you. Andy shame on you everyone on the site is trust worthy (aren't they?) <img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' />

davem 19/01/2012 22:43

sorry tmiw, just seen the comment.

yep just like being back in the mountains lol

pics to follow

davem 19/01/2012 22:40

I'm a bit of a philanthropist scout, so if you like, I can bring a paper bag along for your first walk; just to keep people guessing a bit longer as to what you look like. lol

dib dib

The world loves a mistery !!!

landranger68 19/01/2012 15:43

Hi Scout,There is no shortage of assistance to enhance your computer skills.How we look is unimportant,we are who we are and be comfortable in our own skin.Being on the short side has its benefits,no one can slam a door in my face,as it goes over my head,simple.<img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' />

landranger68 19/01/2012 09:57

Hi Scout,Join one of our walks and get to know each other.We are all of varying ability and age,but are good friends who will always wait for the odd straggler in the pub!!There may be genuine reasons for no photograph,just wary that there is always the odd chancer on any site.<img src='theme/emoticon_smile.png' />

M G 18/01/2012 22:46

Well said scout............but how can anyone trust one if they have / cant see who they can trust ?

Ultreia (Jo & Alan) 18/01/2012 10:49

Right we are looking September

landranger68 18/01/2012 08:44

davem 17/01/2012 20:38

I'm good for the 29th.... Yep totally agree TMIS

The Mind is Willing 17/01/2012 20:23

So I guess it's 29th September then because we can't do it without Wiggy <img src='theme/emoticon_smile.png' />

landranger68 17/01/2012 08:36

I am ok for any of those dates at the moment,but the sooner we hone in on a date the better it will be<img src='theme/emoticon_smile.png' />

ruth 16/01/2012 19:01

If its just one day any of those dates are good for me<img src='theme/emoticon_smile.png' />

The Mind is Willing 16/01/2012 13:04

I'm currently OK for all those dates Jo but the sooner we get a date we can book the better. Earlier is always better because we don't know how many more groupon type opportunities may come our way for this year!! <img src='theme/emoticon_smile.png' />

Ultreia (Jo & Alan) 16/01/2012 12:12

Spoke to the organisers and they will charge Â&pound;15 if anyone else wants to come along. The dates available are June10th Sun. July 28th Sat. Aug 19th Sun. Sept 29th Sun. We might have to split in two different groups as dates might not suit all. <img src='theme/emoticon_smile.png' />
