1.  Who made the second ascent of Master's Edge?

2.   Ray Jardine made the first ascent, Jerry Moffatt onsighted it, Alex Honnold soloed it. Name the route.

3.  What is Doug, Lord and King of the Roaches, surname?

4.  There are three 'Crags for Posers' in On Peak Rock – what do they have in common?

5.   Which climber features on the cover of the 1987 Stoney guide?
Bonus point for the route

6.Guide quote: "A most entertaining climb, although the leader might not agree. The crux move has been the scene of some of the worst examples of climbing technique ever displayed." What is it?

Well done, don't think anyone got that last night. Though there was lots of moaning that 'they're all on lime' or 'they're all caves' were also technically things they had in common. Though Ilam Rock is not a cave.

Dammit. You knew that anyway though, right?

No. I don't think Neil ever had a mullet quite that impressive.

I'd like to state quite categorically, that I never sported a barnet as ridiculous as the one climbing Cabbage Crack on the front of that particular guidebook...

Cofe's belaying was a bit alarming

- or was he juggling imaginary balls?
