Must be those Morrison’s sausage and egg butties. White bread is the key obvs

Catxasita, Ciudad de Dios, Direct Fabelita,, Fuck the System, La Fabela pa la Enmienda, Open your Mind Direct and Seleccio Natural in Santa Linya. Era Vella and Victimas Perez in Margalef.

I tried to look for his scorecard to check but looks like he’s gone underground

He’ll be on the booze when he gets home for a few months to recharge.

Great stuff, legendary route, holds the size of fly's wings etc

Hey c’mon.... I was being serious. I couldn’t find the funny bit.

Isn't the funny bit hiking all the way up to Ceuse in a blizzard to work one move on a lowball so grotty it makes Il Pirata look like Careless Torque?? I like barefoot Charles too.

Heard on the grapevine Alex Waterhouse has done The Fly (9a) in Rumney.

Sorry Duma, as evident from the complete lack of response, that's all pretty meaningless!

Edit: great work Alex. Good to hear a Debn bay doing the business!

 

Great work from Ryan too 

Photos anyone?

Pasquill has done Bain de Sang (9a)

There's a blast from the past. Is it a forgotten route, or does it get done regularly?

Good effort.

Fairly regularly for a 9a. About once a year. http://escalade9.wifeo.com/bain-de-sang.php

Merci. Worth reading that page in google translate for comedy value.

Dave Graham did it in 3 tries, that's good going...

Waddage, she’s quite short too right?

[Duma]

Don't remember her being noticeably short, does it make a big difference for KR?

[Wood FT]

tbf I've got no idea, I just thought it was easier if you're taller. I'll get back under my bridge.

[haydn jones]

Definitely not easier for tall! I feel quite bunch in the undercut, wish I was smaller for that move.

[monkey boy]

Frances is quite short but I agree with Haydn the crux move on Keen is definitely one of the few moves around that is harder for the taller person. Only took her a few sessions too

Sébastian Bouin has done the first repeat of Adam Ondra's linkup "Mamichula", 9b in Oliana.

Nice! So is he implying that his fa's are 9b, or Chilham Balam is 9a+?

[jwi]

Nice! So is he implying that his fa's are 9b, or Chilham Balam is 9a+?

Or both... But yeah, obviously if you're conservative in your grading because of the fear of downgrading you are going to give too low grades sometimes. Can't have it both ways...

[Kingy]

Its the kind of ambiguous comment he seems to make quite often. We are none the wiser. If he had something definite to say then it would have been clearer to spit it out!
