What, not even for a shilling? ;-)

Hmm, that's a difficult choice.

There's a very short list of things I really want in my life and even on
a
promise of all of them, I wouldn't

Oddly climbing something like that I suspect I would quite enjoy doing
(not that for a moment am I suggesting I have the fitness required to
actually do it!). As with most activities working at height, once you go
past a few tens of feet the outcome of a fall is much the same - all that
changes is the amount of time you get to dwell on the mistake.

Anything I climb these days needs to come complete with a (proper) ladder
and probably not be higher than my house. I was better when I was younger
but still wasn't *that* daft :-)
