Replacement pole tips

Somewhere up on Ben Nevis the tip of one of my new poles resides; I think it got pulled out by the mini-snow-basket thingy.

In this modern world of ours I realised I could order a replacement online from Amazon with next day delivery. It turns out that I could get four generic ones for under £5; or I could shell out something like £20 for a genuine replacement part; guess which I went for. I feel a tiny bit sad about it though.

I'll need to glue the new bit into place though.

This is the first time the tip has ever come off a pole. I did consider cannabalising one of my other older poles but I couldn't persuade any of the others to come off or move at all.
