How about double checking that the rope you are about to abseil with is fixed DIRECTLY to the anchors - without any slack between you and the anchors (eg. coils of rope caught around a feature in the rock - which subsequently give way). I know of a situation where this resulted in a (non-tragic) ground fall.
