I got steaming drunk at a christmas party at Nat Allen's house back when I was 15 or 16.
Our parents left us kids to it upstairs so i helped myself to a couple of bottles of vino and a few cans of ale to make sure!!   

Twas a messy xmas day in my house I tell thee!

[cofe]

i met louis theroux on saturday night. regardez moi.

[SA Chris]

Was he doing a programme on Shwingers?

[luckyjez]

Parties in Llanberis back in the day with the Pritchard, Wainwright, Dawes etc and Glenn Robbins (leather cap-wearing Aussie photographer). Occasional meetings with Martin Boysen and many days spent in the company of our own Andy Popp (he'll deny wad status of course).

[grimer]

Glen's you biggest scorer there Jez. I've got a tick in that box myself.

[andy popp]

Glen's you biggest scorer there Jez. I've got a tick in that box myself.

Did you only get a tick in the box Grimer?

I once mistook Dame Margot Fonteyn for a shop assistant and asked her to serve me.

[grimer]

Well, it looked like a tick, although it might have been a crab.

Not to downplay your wad status, Andy, just rewarding Glen's hard-to-tick-ness.

And Dame Margot is a great tick.

[andy popp]

I get a Glenn Robbins tick too - lovely bloke. My joke was pretty poor but thinking about it I'm not even sure Glenn was gay - despite never being without a peaked leather cap and multiple piercings.

I used to work for Martin Atkinson at Wild Country... got a bollocking off him once for a mistake I made on a cam repair

i met louis theroux on saturday night. regardez moi.

My mate from Eyam is Theroux' doppleganger.. He made an appearance as Louis in one of those daft UKC 'Famous People Who Climb ?' threads following a Saturday with me at The Roaches.

[GraemeA]

I've been headbutted by Graeme Alderson..

who hasn't?

Well Leo Houlding has.

[Houdini]

Leo aged 17 3/4 shortly before being butted



Funny ha ha.

[Jaspersharpe]

Headbutting Leo in front of assorted stars like Elie Chevieux

Head butting Gav Ellis on his stag do (bit of a theme here). I know Gav has never been a real wad but thought you'd appreciate it.

Gav holding his face shortly after being butted? (Worth posting just to drag up the Arsolo van picture again....)

[GraemeA]

So who are the famous 4.

I reckon (L to R) Gresh, Pud, Gav and Smythe

[Jaspersharpe]

Lifted from the Old Skool pics thread............

Here's a few more:



Regulation shaved haircuts in front of the Biffa van on the Buoux campsite in winter of '90/'91 (l-r: John Boyle, Rob Wilson, Gav Ellis and Craig Devonshire)

........I'd have guessed at Smythe for Craig D too.

[lagerstarfish]

I'm sure that last time I spoke to Rob Wilson, he was seeing Stevie Hastons daughter - surley a wadish tick (for bravery). Was it RW who was seeing The Mayor of Buoux's daughter at some point? Minor wad point?

[Houdini]

Rob's given Hastons' daughter a good seeing-to at least thrice, largers 

[lagerstarfish]

Rob's given Hastons' daughter a good seeing-to at least thrice, largers 

Are you saying that he has 3 children? Congratulations Rob from a very out of touch Rob 

[Houdini]

Harmony,  Melody, and the youngest Cacophony.

[Falling Down]

Was it RW who was seeing The Mayor of Buoux's daughter at some point? Minor wad point?

I thought that was John Rettie...

[fatdoc]

yeah, it was john.

about the same time as the arsolo van was resident in the buoux campsite for a couple of months...

[205Chris]

Ben Moon once rang me to tell me that the credit card details I'd used on his website were no good. Does that count?

[Fiend]

That is good as Grimer's article about climbing with Ben....
