@ Landsurfer, check my post #358 above. It's got a link to an earlier post about downloading photos.  :)

I think you'll find that Invisible men wear raincoats, dark glasses and a hat.
This doesn't last forever, so do it while you can.

While looking for a picture of some thing else I came across these pictures of me about 38 years ago doing manly things at a fair old height. Poor quality I know but you get the gist. Pic 1 is me looking up at my then apprentice & now Maintenance Manger at NPG, pic 2 is me recovering an errant Stockbridge damper from mid span on a 132kV tower and 3 & 4 are of the S10.

Note, very little safety equipment about in those days...and none the worse for it really. You looked after each other and paid attention. Oh, and spurrred on by Up't Norths picture me on my Yam' Superten on the Stelvio Pass grinding the LHS footpeg down a bit.

I resemble that remark.
Gawd, that was seven years ago, although I have been over since.

I think it was 2016 the last time I was over the Stelvio Pass. We came back over the Umbrail Pass if I remeber correctly which was quite impressive too. The feller from Foto Stelvio must make a few quid...
