VS to E4 without being scared..

How do you reply to a question like that? I hope he succeeds though, I certainly didn't make it without a fair share of scares!

[Paz]

I hope he shits himself, and then succeeds.

We've been having an alarming number of cocktalk esque posts on here recently, and not all of them were mine.

An all time classic about the Indian Face.

(something like this)

"I've just progressed from 5b to 5c, and last month I progressed from 5a to 5b. If I keep it up will I be able to do Indian Face in three months?"

Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure you will. Try it, please do.

Another of the genuine article:



Had an indoor lead fall tonight, about three metres just about to clip the next bolt. It was my first since coming off in Spain three years ago, and although it was a shock, and an adrenaline rush, it wasn't as bad as I thought...

It taught me that my new climbing partner is sound at belaying, and that I can climb to my limit, and falling sometimes isn't that bad.

Will this help me get my head sorted when leading?

Can more positives than negatives be taken from falling sometimes?

what do you think?

Anything with the word "discuss" in.

The problem about many of the suggestions so far is that they actually involve discussing climbing and not pets/each other/IT problems/one's navel/4x4's etc etc.
