I wonder if when they booked The Riot Act out of the library they'd find it such a good read when they got to the States? They'll be flying home early at this rate.

Nice work boys. Hope Crusher is looking after you well.

Even now, crackwads across the US are using cloaking technology to hide their projects!

Some thick bush is a good way to hide a crack...

I hope so.  I thought the picture of Crusher was great.

It is an ancient Mariner,
And he stoppeth one of three.
`By thy long grey beard and glittering eye,
Now wherefore stopp'st thou me?

...if you spend thousands of hours training specifically for them.

Hmmm. So why doesn't that apply for british training culture in general??

Maybe indoor cellars are better for cracks then they are for euro sport climbs ;)

Crikey!  :w00t: Maximum waddage.



One of the things I love about rock climbing is that an image such as the above can represent the state of the art.

I am disappointed that they didn't go back to calling it Chocolate Starfish

that is exactly what it looks like

it also looks a bit like the judge defecating in the film The Wall
