Stayed in last night and watched a film about the 1930s attempt of the North face of the Eiger. What a traumatic story. 3 men perished, but one of them was trapped hanging from a rope and had to survive the night until a rescue attempt could be made. Below him hung his dead friend and above him another friend had died. He had also lost the use of his arm due to frostbite. He survived the night but then had to use his teeth and good hand to unpick some twine to lower to the rescuers so they could attach an abseil rope. With the last of his strength he managed it and the rope was pulled up. Unfortunately his rescuers had to tie two pieces of rope together and the consequences was that the knot got stuck in the metal loop. The climber died 100 feet from safety. I like to cheer myself up with a good film? Managed a half hour practice last night. I am pooping for Britain at this time as the worry has tickled my ISB into action. It's a great way to lose weight though lol. I have a private appointment next Thursday so hopefully I can get the ball(!) rolling and get some answers to my wee problem.
