I will be Yorkshireing it for the weekend. Maybe be Peak wise tomorrow, then somewhere local to Leeds for sat, hopefully get up to slipstones and/or Brown beck on sun/monday. Then drive back to Aberdeen, the steering wheel wet with blood from my poor out of condition tips. :cry:

If any of the staffs lot post on here that inertia reel trav is dry then that's where I'll be. Otherwise I'll be at the plantation (again) trying the ace (again).

Stu, i live near Leek and its been raining and snowing all day! Tomorrow's not meant to be much better, though saturday looks promising but at a guess, unless there's gale force winds, the roaches will probably be wet but i could be wrong!

Snowing here in Blackburn, quite a bit.

Back on topic probably go to Earl on Sunday, there's lots I want to do, but I think they're mostly a bit too hard.  Might feel a bit better if it's cold though.  If I tick one of these I'll be happy:

Hanging Arete - Hate it
Hanging Groove - not tried
Desert Island Arete - low start (done the standup so might go)
The Flakes - have hit the edge several times, but not held it
Superfly - no chance
Grape Nut (Off Ground) - not tried
Sloping Beauty - not tried
Andy Browns Wall - no chance can't even get the crimp
Underpants - not tried
Lager, Lager, Lager - can pull on :)

Obsessive ticker?  You bet!

Well here in Blackburn it's cold, dry and sunny, so I reckon you could get a bit done at Bridestones.  Earl will probably be wet with the snow melting.  I'm off to a family meal now on Sunday in the middle of the afternoon so I might have to get up extra early to get a bit of climbing done.

No snow east of the Pennines in Yorkshire. Places like Caley, Almscliff & Brimham will be dry today.

Good effort JR, I know what a big injury feels like (couldn't even do a pull up for a year)...its shit!

all the best for good recovery on the grit this season,

catch you out there
