Abseiling

Huge thanks to everyone who sponsored Dino for this - he’s raised over £300!
Holding £300 in their hands!

The abseil was yesterday - Sunday 26th April 2009 - and the weather was mixed with lots of sun and a few showers, some heavy.

Getting kitted up
Dino went up the rock (50ish feet up!) and he found it was so much higher than he thought it would be so he came back down again, very upset. But my brave lad went back up to try again and he got as far as leaning out and letting the rope take his full weight before he decided that actually he wasn’t going to cope with actually going down that way, so he climbed back down again.

He had a good go at it, and he’s very proud of himself for being brave and trying, even if he didn’t finish. We’re all very proud of him too, I hope you are.

This is as far as he got - but we’re still very proud of him!
