Yesterday was CAS (Civil Aid Service) open day. There were some stuff on show at their base.
Quite cool. They have this really high outdoor climbing wall (higher than anything I've seen! 13-15 storeys high) and a nice abseiling slope for training and a training concrete building. I tried out some of those training areas, abseiling down the slope was scary at first, but I came out doing it nicely. Also, bouldering the 5.10 (rating) wall was scary because I kept having to go a bit higher for better holds.
They use top quality harnesses and helmets from petzel! The harnesses have nice pads on it, makes falls more comfortable!
There was also this nice tunnel maze thing that you can crawl through in the dark. I bumped my head really hard a few times, lucky to have a good helmet. I think the real thing would be 20 times worse - a training officer told us that it could be filled with smoke to simulate a fire rescue for the real test.
Some Pictures comming....just need to find the cable!

You sure had fun! A 15 storey high wall would be pretty impressive, even more if you had to climb it.
Also, is it possible to send over some of the photographs of us climbing during the last climbing lesson? I have difficulties describing to my mother how lead climbing works. She keeps complaining that she doesn't understand what it means.
Forced to go to Disneyland today. Will be staying overnight at one of the hotels there.
Haven't done much lately (or anything in particular), except fooling around with freeciv and vegastrike. Holidays these days are very unproductive. Still, it remains my personal goal to finish the yearbook page for HKAYP Bronze by the end of Easter.
How ironic my birthday marks the end of the break.
Anyway, I hope that you are enjoying the easter break, especially after the exams.
what about the invention?
Should be not care about the deadline ?
Maybe we should just develop it in our own time. That way it can be more flexible as well avoiding all the documentations.
but how do we deal with the teacher?
hellooooo???
Geez...I hate dis...
Simply say that we are unable to complete it in time. I think you can do it as an email.
As far as I am concerned, the sooner the better (wont you get mad if someone told you last minute that they were going to quit?).
