On the Agenda:
Stanage, Roaches, Eastern Moors - big things are afoot on the finest gritstone crags in the world - Henry will explain

Work meets - Stoney, Horseshoe, Warncliffe

National Council - What should the BMC do with it's money ?

To be followed by free food and more importantly a talk by Kevin Thaw - " one of the world's greatest all-rounders" and "the best climber in Uppermill".

[cofe]

Tends to be the best food at the Glossop one, and the beer costs fuck all.

[Grubes]

I saw kevin Thaws talk at dovestones sail club last saturday was really good. Definately worth seeing

[Offwidth]

Pie and peas this time. Or veggie quiche and salad.

[shark]

Is there a slimfast option ? 

[cofe]

Peas.

[shark]

Peas.

Peas are good

[Bonjoy]

Peas.

Peas are good

Peas are good, 'e's egeneezer good.

[dave]

nice one bonjoy, got that tune in my head now.

[Fiend]

To be fair to Glossop, it's an annoying traffic jam on the way to many places, not just North Wales...

[cofe]

Next Peak Area meet is next Wednesday at the Maynard in Grindleford. Details here.

It's also the AGM and the Christmas Quiz. God knows why I'm telling you all this as I haven't actually been to one for about a year...

[Bonjoy]

Xmas quiz sounds good, could be worth gathering a team for...

[cofe]

I'm going, if only to try and win back the prizes we're donating.

[dave]

I'm in.

Given the Maynard's bar prices I'll be up for sharing a half with someone.

[Andy B]

Did someone say climbing quiz?

Hell yeah.

[GraemeA]

Did someone say climbing quiz?

Hell yeah.

Bugger, no one actually told me the quiz was about climbing. All of the questions that I have prepared relate to Sunderland Association Football Club and England Ashes victories. Back to the drawing board then.

[Andy B]

Feel free to leave the Sunderland questions in.

A specialist round on the sights and sounds of Pennywell and Grindon would be good too.

[Moo]

sunderland questions, like what was the score last time they played newcastle?

[Andy B]

Even a simple one like "how many places above Newcastle are Sunderland," would do.

[GraemeA]

Cheers Andy, you're not a bad bloke for a Tory twat 

Moo - it's a quiz mate, I can't go asking questions about such recent history. Maybe I should be asking who is the 6th most successful English team in terms of English Championships. No it's not the Skunks or even Chelsea (who incidentally we hammered last Sunday), its SAFC.

[Andy B]

Cheers Andy, you're not a bad bloke for a Tory twat 

I hope that's a fucking joke.

How many Pennywell Tories do you know?

[GraemeA]

How many Pennywell Tories do you know?

Whoops, sorry, confusing you with Andy Bowie.

Although to be honest me mum's sister lived in Pennywell (she lived on Nookside I think although maybe further out to wards the A19) and I think she was probably a Tory, although she's been dead for many years so I can't be sure.

[Andy B]

Well you can be fucking sure I'm not one.

I was on my way to The Works with a petrol bomb there, but I'll put it through Moo's window instead. It's closer to my house anyway.
