Have'nt been here in a while

Time for an update I think. The last time you heard from me was I had abseiled off the hospital. Since then I have work on the Coast to Coast as a parking attended. It was a hell of a lot of fun and hard work as well. We got up there on the Friday night and Went to the Bealey for a feed, which was awesome. Then we made camp at the transition station from the mountain run to the bike and it was also the stop over station for the two day racers. It was a good day and we were looked after very as being volunteers.

Have had a few trainings and the have been going very well. Still waiting to see if i have a job or not as we have not been told if we have been sold or not.

Well that's about it really, i know there is more to tell but i cant think of anything so i will catch up later.

Had a great day yesterday

We abseiled of the old hospital yesterday. We did an abseil in a stair well and then did one outside into some trees. Then another one outside which was a bit easier. Loved it all. Then we did some ascending which I hate. After that I was stuffed. The rest of the team did an offset abseil where they abseil but have another rope and that rope attached to your harness via a pulley. A person down the bottom then can make the abseiler move left or right or pull them out so the can doge a trees below. Then it was of to the Speights Ale house for a beer. All in all it was great and for once my fear of heights was not that bad and i just got to the edge and did it.
