They'd be nondescript as a boulder prob, but as the finish to The Ashes they just work perfectly.

 Positive vibrations definitely. Although slight chossy ledge after the first few pitches? Ideally you'd have hanging belays all the way.

Bachar yerrian doesn't have much in the way of filler. Either hard or terrifying or both.

I can't imagine many people have done or tried tuppence and walked away feeling like it needs more...

This one.

Only some stupid fecker went and bolted it (In a trad area no less!!!).

Still amazing though.

You didn't spot my fantasy route combo! Tuppence is great but more would be better...

That looks totally class (albeit in a less than perfect situation inside a slot?)

Calling of the grinding exhibit A.

I thought of another - and I may actually have called this one perfect in the guidebook: Grooved Slab at Helsby. I can't think of a single way in which this could be improved.

Nah it's in southern France so the Slot means prime connies in summer. It was amazing, 30+degrees in the open air but in the canyon probably 10 degrees less. It was brilliant! Someone definitely needs to get a grinder on it...
