Calling of the lime

Im gonna call the moorland grit. Dry early, no midgies yet and shady cool temps make for good friction. Problem is all my mates have been called by the lime already!

Well we're over in Font for  a family holiday and I'm falling off the top of a problem called Elvis at Isatis repeatedly. I'm at the point of exhaustion, a fine font rash on my right forearm, the croatians have left with their 5 pads and it's just me, a pad and no one else. Go back to the car and let the family know "just 1 more go" so we can get back for some tea. Get through the bottom bit to the same point I've been flailing on for an hour, there's a chill in the forest, and bam I get a spike of energy, press out that sloper, belly on and i've topped out. A classic disturbance in the Fawcett and as i suspected it's been called. Fine effort Dobbin and just what I needed to save the day. Hope to get out for celebratory lap of Staminaband in the not too distant....

While the Lime may have been called, the Grits certainly not gone... Almscliff was in great condition last night...

One little warm spell and everyone gets excited....

Some amazing comments on that article (and I only looked at the first page).

Saw this story was on the front page of some rag (Mail or Express) the other day. Think I'll reserve judgement.

Probably wise. If they're right then it's more likely to be a problem where you are!

All bollocks. Based on Piers Corbyn's 'WeatherAction' company that refuses to publish its 'unique' methods of weather prediction...

However anything that keeps the grit in and the lime out is good by me :)

Balls to warm weather. I've put 12 sessions in to a local grit project. It better not warm up just as I'm getting close.
