Some lovely attitudes coming out here.Anyway, he finished uni last year. Spent a year in Madrid for his degree, and teaches there now.
Anna Taylor has repeated Franco Cookson's Psykovskys Sequins E8 7a on the North York Moors. Third ascent bumping think, after Franco and Dave Birkett. Interestingly she chose to solo it despite there being some gear (a filed down slider).
Nah, he just wanted to share the glory with his mates, which is fair enough.
It does make for a very confusing coda to the route description though, making it sound like several people lead it then Dave Warbuton soloed it! Not quite as confusing as the use of the word ‘reflexing’ though.
