Not wishing to steal the thunder too much from those hooligans down under, it is a fact that I have a wonderful VHS video of the "World Tour Of Australia" travels of the foul mouthed "Big Yin"
the Glaswegian Billy Connolly. unless my memory is failing me one of the memoriable events shown is Billy scrambling up and on one of the sails.
But it looked like a special event not a regular tour as such, and akin to a walk up the Golden Gate Bridge's cabling supports. Now there is a thought.Can you get up on the cabling of he Sydney Harbo(u)r Bridge too?
