‘Like the Foundry, only outdoors’ St Govans.

Only in that its usually full of people from Sheffield?!

Half way up the superlative Oz in Tuolumne Meadows "ah nooo,  my fat fingers don't fit this corner crack" and in reply "keep going bro, fingerlocks or tinderbox" and as he made a bit of progress "yah bro in there like swimwear ". Needless to say they were Californian.

Only if you have the right cable, otherwise it’s just a double mono.
