Since your efforts are all to do with a worthy charitable cause associated with climbing and mountaineering, I would have hoped that this site would cut you some slack - or, indeed, make your posts available for free. I hope that might be the case in future.
> Am I pricing Ascent and Hanging on too high? They never sell. I’m open to offer if you think any are priced too high?
I'll put my money where my mouth is, and take 'Ascent.' I'll be in touch via email.
All the books left are now £25. Except Coronation Everest! This post finishes on Saturday and I’m hoping to turn the books into funds for Community Action. I also have 2 ice axes for sale ( gifted to me). One is a brand new Black Diamond, the other is a vintage wooden handled ice axe. Looking for £40 or such for them.
Received in good order; exactly as described; packed in a way which would survive a nuclear blast; and accompanied by a completely unexpected - but very welcome - present.
Thanks very much Linda! I appreciate and respect the work that you do.
