I can probably get 30m Tajima open-reel fibre tape measures (they're good!) for about 6 or 7 quid in Chongqing (I need to check the current price).  My mum's coming to visit soon and I could send some back to the UK with her. [[User:Duncan.collis|Duncan Collis]] 13:27, 30 May 2008 (BST)

Revision as of 13:27, 30 May 2008

What we currently have

At the tackle store clearout (18th May) we counted:

  • 1 good tape (there are 3 good tapes and 13 old tapes on the 'left at basecamp' list)
  • 4 compass with working lights
  • 2 clinos with working lights
  • 1 compass with broken light
  • 3 clinos with broken lights
  • 1 pony
  • 1 working pencil

There was also a daren drum with what looked like taken apart survey instruments/batteries in...

Ponies

I've contacted Phil, asking for a new Pony for CUCC. He's kindly offered to lend us one if he can't make a new one in time. Ollie s

Distos

Do we want more distos? - the club currently only has one, and they are very useful. Ollie s

  • Currently applying for some disto sponsorship - wil keep you posted. Edvin

Paper & pencils

I expect we need to buy several more pads of waterproof paper- I think we were running out last year. I googled "waterproof paper caving" and was excited to find that both CUCC and Wookey are mentioned in the first result- [1]. I guess we should call 01473 890285 and order a few Waterbooks then.

We don't need to use waterproof paper most of the time though - how much dry paper (which is much cheaper) do we have? [Becka]

Survey tapes

The stuff in austria list says we have 16 tape measures at base camp, of which 3 are in good condition. Let's buy a few more! -Aaron 08:27, 21 May 2008 (BST)
