Of course... if you go to Bonehill you can crawl to the car should you have a mishap.

When Polly fell off the cube and did her ankle, that car turned out further away than it seemed.

Apparently, moving someone with a broken ankle all of 100mtrs, is fuckin painful...

I'll be in Plymouth between Christmas and New year. Looks like Dartmoor is the place to get some bouldering done. I've only been to Devon three times in my life (once to go to Lundy, once to watch Mansfield play Exeter and once driving through on the way to Cornwall) so know nothing.
What's the deal guide wise? Where's good for the one-matted, no-spottered punter in the mid 6s to (very) low 7s?
:thumbsup:

Cheque. Looks like I'll be down too; happy to show you any of the Dartmoor venues.

If I recall correctly Christmas 2010 provided dry weather. It might have been 2008 though...
1996-2002 was wet on Christmas day.
2004. Wet
2006. Sog
Good luck. Sunny Devon eh!
