CV,
I'm with you mate.
I've been a "climber" since I was 3-4 years old I used to climb everything within sight, trees, you name it, I was up a 70ft Macrocarpra Tree once and some idiot called the Fire Brigade, they thought I was Autistic.
Hieghts have never been a problem, though.

Kids aren't allowed to climb anything higher than steps now because of Health and Safety Laws.
Now being a Line worker, I love being up on the highest of poles, 66kV ones are cool.
What a nasty society we live in. [Linked Image]
