A fantastic end to an epic roadtrip with Disco, OT and of course Turk. We had no intention of doing the chimney, but after lunch on the jetty we took a wander over and decided to go for it!! With no ladder or climbing gear, we set about making a fantastic 'heath robinson' tower out of the dumped material on the site. OT went first, and prooved the ridiculous pile of crap could be used to reach the chopped off ladder. I went for it, but either fright or self preservation made me get back down. Turk then made it up to so there was NO way I was leaving it, and gritting my teeth I made the point of no return by clutching that bottom rung!

The climb was tight and filthy... we were black as pitch by the top, but my god did the views make it worth while... simply breathtaking!

Back down was not as bad as I was expecting. A filthy handshake and then set about making our way home.

In the very centre of the pic is a disco kitten, made up of a single pixel!
