This OP contains unsubstantiated information and may well be completely untrue
Heads up from my mate Dave, who works at the Home Office.......apparently new legislation is being rushed through to make vaccine passports obligatory at all indoor sporting facilities including gyms and climbing walls!
This is fantastic news for keeping the conscientious majority safe and a long overdue kick up the ar*e for a moronic few
Seems fairly pointless to have vaccine passports when vaccine uptake is 90%+ in the age groups who have been offered it. Might as well ask 'how old are you'.
Even if the OP is a troll, it's worth noting that the Government has repeatedly confirmed that vaccine passports, and any restrictions on people who have not been vaccinated, would only come into effect once the entire adult population had been offered vaccines.
Nobody is going to be prevented from doing anything because they're too young to have had the jab yet, let's not all get worked up.
I've never understood the point of the spring. A couple of years ago I acquired one after a visit to a local crag(*), and tried it out to see if my 30 year antipathy towards it was justified. It was. Spring just got in the way. Back to my trusty plain no bells and whistles one. Damn this fancy modern rubbish.
(*) - crag swag. Actually managed to locate and contact owner (courtesy of UKC logbooks), who didn't want it returned due to him being 2000+ miles away.
Full disclosure; I have never actually owned one with the spring. When me and my chum started out 35 years ago he bought the one with the spring and I bought the DMM bettabrake (Alan Austin's having no more left with springs - ever). In the odd situation when I had occasion to use his device it always seemed to run smoother than my more simple one.
