Let me have a guess - it's a cordelette. A 8m long piece of nylon deadweight that sat on my harness for a while. Ended up using twin ropes for almost all belays anyway. Now it sits at home in the climbing gear "graveyard drawer" along with the rappel rack, figure eights, sticht plate with spring, worn out tube, and a rack of pitons.

How it found it's way down to Nowra is anyone's guess. It could be migration/breeding season for these things and it got lost on the way to Boroomba. I'm sure my numbtyness is genetic and has little to do with it. I only want it back if by some chance it's transformed into brand new 12mm spectra tape or 5mm cord - I'd like to resling my hexes. Thanks
