Why are you apologising to nai? He seems to be the only person not getting on the route! Looks like no one else cares.

I was apologising because I refuted what he said as I thought the nest was further over than where it is

Nests also under construction on Zoolook, Overnite, Thriller/Victor Hugo and apparently on Full Tilt

If you are referring to my comment on FB about Full Tilt I was just trying to wind Dave up.  Sorry I don't want to put misleading information out there and I don't know if there are any on Full Tilt at all.

Yes GBH is unaffected. The nest that's being built is under the Zoolook roof where you shake out before the headwall

Thank you to whoever put the sign up below raindogs this weekend. Without this sign is think it would have been climbed.  Although people were on zoolook

It was the Malham festival this weekend and the rspb were at the bottom, showing tourists birds thru binoculars. It's weekends like this climbers really need to be on top form access wise!

Yeah, agreed, the sign was a good idea. Might be worth adding one to other routes or an updated one to cover all routes. The Overnite nest is pretty obvious from below but the Zoolook one is nowhere near as obvious, nor the Thriller one.

Rob Dyer at the BMC said he would sort signs out next week

I've got two pairs of housemartins nesting directly above my kitchen window (now with chicks).  Can I still cook my tea?

Tell the ones above your window to tell the ones nesting at crags to bugger off. (Edit 2 cases of spell correct)

They only come back on tour nowadays.. Fly in - fly out etc..
