I've never used a rope - mostly because my rope skills are so poor, it would certainly be more dangerous!I think the Promontory only gets splashy on seaward side of the most seaward blocks so there is plenty to get on.
I also think the Land of Giants is fine by yourself if you just climb carefully and pick sensible problems. It's actually the steep descent that is probably the thing to be most cautious of (esp if it has been wet). The updated guide suggests keeping right which is a little further but probably more secure.
The safest and easiest place to climb up there is actually Droman Pier (can find details and topos on UKC), but it is tidal.

Been blown over on that slab a couple of times, though I note that you are close in to the corner, we've always gone straight down the slab . Suspect you're right though!
And yeah, I sort of meant the descent to LoG was a little spooky in poor conditions. Still wouldn't fancy it on my own, the imagination runs wild down there
Edit: And I can't figure out why the quote function on UKB is so erratic on my phone.
