Blipping the blipper

Here, caught in action is a hardcore blipper who is always quick to judge me when I take a while to get my blips uploaded. I was going to catch up earlier when I got engrossed reading all the reviews of the new tripods in this month's 'Which Tripod'. Then I read an interesting article in 'Modern Tripodery' about the British Olympic Tripodery team training for this year's games in London. The Men's Freestyle Tripoderthon is apparently our best chance for a medal. Just as I was about to get on at last, the postie dropped the Feb edition of 'Amateur Tripod Enthusiast' on to my doormat. The guys from A.T.E. had done a head to head test, pitching that mainstay of The British Tripodery establishment, Triking's Anglemaster 2000 against the new kid on the block: Slopebuster's revolutionary TPX Triboy Xtra, favoured by some circles of the new underground movement of avant-garde Tripoders currently pushing the envelope of Tripoderiisationalism. I won't spoil it for those yet to read the feature, but it turns into a real 6-legged slugfest, that puts these 2 market leaders through more than any Tripod should have to endure.....
