I have a photo of a 13 inch effort at the top of a UK route that shows virtually every section of that poo chart the doctors use.
I compel you to post it.

Lund, have you never had the shits before? You really must try it sometime.

I once had to take a shit half-way up Memory Lane. Best thing for it.

Unfortunately some of us do shit in our own back gardens. This seems to have increased in the last 15 years or so in the UK. Take a look in the cave at Quarryman's Wall, Winspit Quarry which had an in situ bog roll when I was last there. It is unlikely to be non-climbers at fault here.

Lightening the load before getting to the crag is clearly optimal but, in case you can't manage this, I suggest people carry a children's hand trowel (and a cigarette lighter for the paper).

Or a plastic bag...

I tried burning the toilet paer but it's usually covered in damp shit. Takes ages to burn and smells like shit unfortunately. Nappy sacks for the paper works a treat.

Lund you are a fucking disgrace. The ridiculous idea that everyone can shit on command is beneath even UKC.

Anyone walked down Burbage Valley recently? Pottered down towards Remergence yesterday with small children and there was literally a dog turd on every piece of grass lining the path. It's a f*cking disgrace. Maybe an 'end of summer' thing, but I've never noticed this being an issue before. There's literally a turd every few metres. [ kind of :off: rant ]

I blame the weather...

Sorry - being half serious - its barely rained in the last 3 weeks - and I suspect the natural physical processes (biological ones are probably going full pelt) that help 'disperse' said poo have been running a bit slower than usual..

Either that or a bunch of fuckwit dog walkers are about (likely too)
