The Peak Bouldering Guide is OUT!

Thousands of the buggers have just been delivered to the distributors.

It should be available in Outside by Wednesday and lots of other shops shortly after.

Or order direct from www.v-graphics.co.uk

When the other lot (that have not gone to the distributors) gets delivered (this aft or tomorrow) the really keen can pop into Vertibrate Graphics on Psalter Lane in Sheff and get one there.

Don't hassle me as I've not gone any yet (but will have shortly).

Are they £20 everywhere or are they cheaper if we buy direct from you?  :wink:

Well I haven't got any yet, but if you order one through the site you get 'em for £18 (it says pre-order to get this price but this price will be prabably be kept open for a while).

If you go into Vertibrate Graphics its self they'll be this price too, but they've not been delivered there yet (tomorrow I think).

yo Ru,  If I go to Vertabrate about 4.30 today will I be able to get a copy?
I'm rather psyched about getting one.

The shop at The Edge has just got a few copies in/left! Looks very nice, all 350 pages of it! Well done Ru. Now the blue touch paper of publication has now been lit - stand back and watch the fireworks! I reckon there'll be a lot of arguments over grades, grading systems, etc, etc. after the few comments I heard in the shop earlier, but isn't there always.

I personally am disappointed that the photo of the sheep has my name under it - kinda looks like the wooley animal is called Percy..... I have had my hair cut recently, but any resemblance to a sheep is surely some mistake?!?! :wink:

Yes, we all thought that was funny too, but then we tracked down the sheep in question to ask if it minded whether its photo went in, and it turns out that, by amazing coincidence, it's name actually is Percy Bishton as well.

You couldn't make it up.

Vertebrate got their delivery today, so they should be processing orders now. You should get it in the next couple of days.
