it's too easy to photoshop stuff to make bags look really big in stills

I think we should be shown some video evidence of the size of the bag

It's what they use to carry Nik to the crag in so his little legs don't get tired.

Really tiny climber. And surely  :off:

Not sure how that's off topic, unless you want to rename this thread "calling out Ellis". It just seems like a bit of a witch hunt going after one young lad

Not a climber that is sponsored or seeking sponsorship (as far as I know)
Not a Last Great Problem
Not an active project of (an)other climber(s)
Not a problem of national/international difficulty or significance
It's just a hard problem at a very esoteric crag

Why would it need video evidence?

I can't speak for Eric Bibbler-Bobbler but UKC approached me I didn't seek anything.
However if you choose to think that i didn't actually climb that problem that's fine. I can't prove I did.

Mumbra seems to have doubts about Niks problem on that crag below Hepponstall. I can't remember what it's called.

That depends on how you define something.. ;) if your idea of UKB based tittle tattle is something then yes. Otherwise move along please...

Not at all Dense asked had he missed something and I told what had been implied by others.
I have time to provide a public information service at the moment as on a day to day basis I have fuck all to do.

It's always worth filming and posting, successful or not, sometimes it can be damn funny.

I have nothing to add WRT EBB, but this:

Do you honestly expect me to believe that with all of the ridiculously strong local and traveling climbers coming through font that no one re-climbed Fatman in a decade if it's only 8B? 

...is something I might have thought sensible enough at the time. But the whole rake of L'Alchimiste post-break ascents well-demonstrates that this sort of situation can and does occur.

You could start up some sort of search service - maybe with a stupid name like Google - or maybe Ask Webbo...?

That might work if I could actually work my way round a computor.
For example I found this video on how to open a quick link on a bike chain yesterday. To day after 40 minutes searching I reckon it must have been an hallucination.
It works though. :-\

I found this new iPad alternative that old gits like me can use, even without too much assistance from tech support.









It's called an iBacus...
