Fancy a cuppa? You'll need one by the time you get to this place (if you haven't died of an adrenalin overdose in the meantime!) |

I'm caffeine free, so Rooibos (red bush tea) is my favourite tipple.  |

Me too (apart from chocolate of course) I manage with decaf instant during the week and some proper stuff on sunday with my croissants. (the s got stuck there and sounded like Gollum for a bit!!) I get sick at the smell of tea. Ronnie drinks gallons of the noxious liquid  |

Good grief, it had better be a SPECTACULAR cup of tea!

I would need something a bit stronger than a cup of tea after making that journey....

I love a good cup of tea, but the only way I would be seen up there if I was knocked out and carried there.
Upon awakening I would become a gibbering wreck

One thing that interests me is what happens on your way up when you meet someone on the way down?!!!

Apparently one party must return to the nearest platform which allows them to pass!

Which reminds me of the old Max Miller joke:
'I was walking along a narrow mountain path when I met a beautiful young woman coming the other way. I didn't know whether to block her passage or toss myself off'.

I'm caffeine free, so Rooibos (red bush tea) is my favourite tipple. That's what I drink most of the time, though depending on mood, I may drink: Darjeeling; Lapsang Souchong; Assam; Orange Pekoe; China green tea; Black Russian tea, or Burma tea. Occasionally Earl Grey. I'm as fussy about tea as I am with wine. |

Seen this tea shop path before. Apparently loads of folk die on that. (About 100 a year)
I wouldn't do it - not the height that bothers me,it's the (lack of) quality in the construction.
Even in a harness if you were to fall suspension trauma kicks in and that in itself can kill you.
