I'm still utterly clueless as to what happened. Like even vaguely what happened. Is it even to do with climbing?

I think it's because nobody really cares. It sounds to me like someone nicked someone else's project which they'd cleaned. If that's the case then, depending on the amount of cleaning effort put in, who cares?

Maybe someone bulldozed the bottom of the crag, chopped a tree or two down, built a patio then used the left over materials pallets to back up the gym mats.

Mistook the crag for the Tor?

Tilberwaite sounds like the name of a Butler/Valet in a 1920's period drama...

It sounds like bigger news than it is, but ill give you the story in short.

Anna found a route, she cleaned it and started trying it. Will finds out about this route somehow, pretty hazy on that detail, I think he repeated a route near by or saw Annas rope from the road. Anyhow Will gave it a go and thought he could probably do it. He decides to not do it because its her project or whatever.. should be the end of things, but no.

Gresh finds out that someones been on it but doesn't know who and starts throwing toys out the pram (Gresh, if you're reading this, I think you can agree deep down that's what went on). I'm weirdly high on the suspect list for who's trying to nick the route so get lots of phone calls, turns out Annas being filmed on the thing for this film in brit rock and is quite upset and whatnot.

Will saw Greshs actions as rude and bullying.. were they? whos to say. alot of posts on facebook and insta got deleted which would have made good reading. Anyhow Will thinks he might aswell do it after all and does, followed by Cal and Tom

Nothing that mental there but some extra stuff went on thats got people in a twist; firstly Annas car/van got done in by a silver car, I think it reversed into her or something.. (Gresh saw this from the crag). He thinks it was Will, Will thinks it was an angry farmer because the "parking" is a passing place and the farmer had a right go at Cal for parking there saying people had been parking there for weeks. Farmers do have a bit of a rep in the lakes for this kind of thing so it wouldnt get a raised eye-brow from me if that was the case. 

Next up, as Doylo said, someones done a shit under the route. Frankly I think everyones confused about the poo, everyone but Gresh, he's angry about the poo.

Other normal ethical debates including use of pads(/gym mats and pallets by the looks of things) and grades (lets not go there) where had too.

I think that's all the major points..

We need more stuff like this. It’s far more interesting than someone spending 5 years on a 9b.

Useful information, from which one can glean, be respectful of projects, don't overreact especially without knowing what's going on, and have some clear communication.

Going for a spite shit under someone's route is pretty cool though.  :shit:

And don't park in passing places.

You can't do a DNA test on poo (just like vomit).

Maybe it's 'you can't really dust for poo'?

That's if you're tipping a hat to the great Spinal Tap!!!!

Either way this is one of the best threads in a long time. I just wish Gresh would post...

It was indeed a reference to the mighty Tap. I paraphrase (can't remember).
