It can't have been that impressive or memorable at the time, cos you were there Adam.

I’d love to have done some trad but it seems hard to get partners for sub big-numbers classic pottering these days

I have the same problem. Always keen for this stuff, you know who to call!

Pretty sure it is yeah, well worth digging out.

Seen this now, although it was all beeped out!

I remember finding that bit (where she has the outburst) tricky and having a bit of an outburst a few metres higher when I realised firstly that the pitch wasn't over (it didn't even finish at the next logical point either), and secondly that I didn't have any suitable cams left.

The Stevie Haston episode was the best, slagging of British mountaineers for doing their training in the pub.
