| Alasdair's Grand Adventure | Petzl Absorbica Inspection Request | ABTT Tallescope Advice | Move It |
Many of you may not be aware that our Managing Director, Alasdair Flint, has taken three month's leave to join an expedition to climb a volcano,the Beerenberg. The volcano is on a small Norwegian island called Jan Mayen off the Icelandic mainland and is part of the same chain as the now all too familiar but far less pronouncable Eyjafjallajökull.
Just to add to the adventure he is travelling there on board his boat, Sumara of Weymouth. You can follow his adventures via his blog.
He returns to more prosaic duties in the middle of August.

The ABTT has been in discussion with the Health & Safety Executive regarding Tallescopes© for some time especially in regard to moving them with someone in the cradle as has been common practice in the theatre for many years.
At one point the advice was not to do this, but this has now been modified so that they can be moved as long as the person in the cradle is using an independent fall-arrest device. Click here for the full ABTT statement or for more information visit the ABTT website: www.abtt.org.uk
Flints will continue to supply Tallescopes, which are available to purchase on line.
