I know these as shackles. However, I don't know whether UK climbers use the term carabiner.

Yes. That word is used in the UK in this context.

That is a jar of the most vile substance known to man, Cheez-Whizz. I don't know how to spell it, because there is none in my house.

Correct Kevin, it's a jar of Cheez Whiz. If you bring your truck around, we have several pallets we can sell you. It's on sale this week.





Over to you.

I first learned of "carabiners" in my youth, at Outward Bound in Banff, Alberta. That's what the instructors called them and some of them were British.

I'm only half through the first coffee of the day BUT - clear headed enough to think that's an EXIT sign.
