Okay this is mostly a topic to show Chris my ticklist as he asked:

http://www.fiendy.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/saticklist.html

...and later on some photos hopefully. But also a thread suitable general discussion...

Cedarberg is amazing. Rocklands is amazinger still.

Paarl is awesome.

Montagu is a bit overrated.

Sport climbing around Cape Town is great in the right places.

Trad is also great despite mountain walk-ins blah blah.

Droerwors is one of the best food-substances on Planet Earth.

....actually there isn't that much to discuss =).

Oh and finally, it's where Salt-beef can moan about the weather :D

Nice one Matt, some good ticks in there! I agree about Montagu, rock always feels slippery, guess you would get used to it in time though.

how long were you out here fiend. so far i have ventured to topside twice. and i think i've topped one problem, saturday the weather was grim! but we still cranked, nearly did "sarah" but after 4 hours of climbing in force 10 was a bit pooped. will try and hit rocklands soon, unfortunately the nice weather seems to be during the week, like today, but i have an academic meeting in half an hour. joy.

And PS there is a shop in Edinburgh that sells excellent droewors, will pick some up this weekend.

And they are not the only ones http://www.rainbownation.com/directory/index.asp?CatID=22
