'Unfinished business'
February 10, 2004, 02:32:00 pm
I recently wrote myself a list of all my 'unfinished buisness' problems. I came up with a list of ~20-30 problems that i've tried at somepoint along the way but had never quite managed to drag my arse up.

The annoying thing was i went out to owler tor on sat afternoon to do the crack thingy left of the two ears problem (B7 apparently). Happily i dispatched this fairly quickly  :D  and decided the SS would be worth a look. Needless to say, did all the moves and now have another entry on my list!!!!!!!!  :x I think i'm stuck in an loop i can't get out of!!!!

Is it just me or has everyone else got an 'Unfinished business' list as long as their arm :?:

If you ever finished your unfinished business then maybe bouldering wouldn't hold the same appeal.

But I agree, as you get better or travel about a bit, then that list keeps on growing. I don't think there's many who ever tick their whole list....but having said that, after ticking the whole Peak, maybe that's why Jason Myers goes surfing instead these days  :?:

If you pop your clogs with 'unfinished business' and you're psyched enough does that mean you can you come back as a ghost and haunt the problems you've not done?     :bat:

It's a long list and that's how I like it. So long as some get ticked off at regular intervals and a similar number of new entries appear in their places, I'm a happy man.

L'huffmaster-P, je méprise la Millstone. C'est un escarpé pour fags de résistance d'intérieur/calcaire.

Steady on lads, or I'll inflict some of my clumsy Welsh on you - mind you, I suppose Huffy could deal with that too - a true renaissance man: 3 languages and counting!
