Were I not an absolute punter I'd happily represent the forum.

Second thoughts, having seen this:

Quote from: theclimbinghangar.com
Sponsors: The BMC, 5.10, MuleBar, UKC

fuck that. It'll be a bloodbath.

UKB boys deal with the ladies, only to be ambushed by Rab on the way out.

Magpie?
I'm a bit far away, and I'm not sure how well I'd fair being thrown to the lions trying to defend the DFBWGC anyway.  :lol:

Also, it might help if the ambassador had done some actual climbing recently.  :-[

I could go... Maybe not for the full day but could certainly make an appearance and be heckled on behalf of the UKB massif! Does it matter that I've known Shauna for years and have been consulted in the run up to the event? On second thoughts that could be an assett!

Whatever, the offer stands...

Is there going to be a webcast of this, could make for some interesting viewing given the crappy forecast for the weekend.

It's not till Saturday Nov 5th. Cornice is likely to be bone dry. Also I'm sure your help would be welcomed at the Trackside restoration tomorrow if you are at a loose end  ;D

Shall I bump the dead fit blokes thread so you can use it as an example of how equal opportunities we are around these parts? ;)

 Undoubtedly this would entail explaining/defending DFBWGC. I am assured that Mick Ryan won't be present and for the record Shauna is not personally of the opinion that DFBWGC is misogynist.



My 6 year old daughter, scans the DFBWGC thread often (with Daddy's supervision, ahhemm). Very few of the jokes are too explicit (and a little rapid scrolling deals with those). She finds it inspiring, to see so many, different, girls; climbing hard.
It's hard to find such a extensive photo collection on that topic.
I told her DFBWGC stood for "Defo, Fantastic, Beautiful, Wonderful, Girl Climbers"...
And really, are the cracks much worse than the cracks made at shirtless male climbers, or those with dodgy ensembles...

I'm too junior and too caught up in other things, to volunteer.
But even my Missus doesn't see it needs much defending...

The insect overlords are to be congratulated on a wise choice of representation I think. Don't forget your flak jacket....  :ninja:
