The quality of lights is obviously going downhill.
Got a little movement on the klein stuck seatpost 
The thomson post has flanges that the vice can grip. Some strain on it then bounced it a bit and got an almighty creak. More bouncing and its moved around about 3/4-1"
Movement means its free and now just a matter of putting it under strain whilst pulling on the post. Likely clamped upside down so I can use spreading clamps to help push it up as i apply side pressure.
As with all seatpost free`er's, im rather chuffed with meself

Re:
Was out for a couple of hours round my mid week loop this afternoon, WTB Trail Blazers were just not up to the gloop I encountered. I had some medium speed off camber lock to lock action, it probably looked kinda impressive from a bystanders perspective but I was in no way in control even though I never fell off (luck)

Re:
Today I dug out a pair of new wheels (26") and a new pair of tyres (26") and a new pair of tubes (26") and paired them all up, does anybody get slightly aroused when assembling new components? No! Me neither :roll:
Anyway, the rims are Mavic EX721's and I fitted 26 X 2.4's on them and they've come up almost as wide as my 27.5 X 2.8's on my semi-skimmed :shock:
