I'm doing a talk on the NIAD 1984 style for King's College London Mountaineering Club at 6pm on the 12th February. Non-KCL types are welcome. 

I don't have many pictures from 1984 so there will a little padding out with 'road to the nose' stuff like Millstone, Verdon, and early ascents of Zodiac, PO Wall, and Astroman. I'll also do a bit about the 2014 version if there is time and interest.

Venue tbc, likely London Bridge, I'll update details here and on Facebook.


There will be lots of big hair.


(Not El Cap.)

Is that photo in the old blue Froggat guide? I'm sure I've seen it before......

[Johnny Brown]

Wow, Millstone has changed. Route?

Its not,  I (very sadly)  had it to hand and just checked!

I'd love to know what route.  Anyone?

That's not sad. Maybe it was in On Peak Rock then.....

It's Regent Street, c.1979. Previously seen here.

[Johnny Brown]

Ha, exactly the same thought six years later.

There will be lots of big hair.

Presumably only on the 1984 version?

I won't be able to attend but it sounds like a great talk

I could have sworn i knew it from a guide but I guess that's where I saw it and the hair stuck in my mind......

I've always wondered how different these crags look.  As a kid, and as a youthful climber pondering guidebooks, I always remember these crags a being much more barren.

closest match I can get is

Can you film it? 

[duncan]

I'm going to try and do something with "google hangouts", whatever that is, and it may be streamed or recorded.

[Fultonius]

Noooo! Don't use Google hangouts. No-one uses it and (at a total guess)  it won't be open for non-users.

If its recorded it goes onto youtube, and if not anyone with the link can access it.

@Fultonius, luckily the people who made Google Hangouts, also made a wonderful thing which means you no longer need to have a total guess....

Yeah, fair point. [/luzy cunt]

I'm only being defensive because i'm one of the people who recommended using it...

I'm only attacking 'cos I'm sick of my android phone constantly trying to force me to use certain google apps that I don't want. I should really make some time to root it and delete them all. That and not being able to rate apps without joining google+ [/resist]

What Dave said. 

Sorry Duncan I have a gig tonight otherwise I'd be there.

Are you coming this evening?

[csl]

Afraid not, watching Tame Impala at Ally Pally.

[SA Chris]

Better that Wild Impala on the Masai Mara?

[csl]

No, but cheaper.

Something should happen here from 6pm:
