Jesus, my post is gibberish. I DID type 1890. Meant 1980. Obviously. There's got to be more gems out there.

Al, good to see you joining me in this humiliation. Can you tell who that is in the Catastrophe photo - the person stood in the pod looks nude from the waist down. I'm just praying to god its not me.

[Blunk]

Al that last pic is awesome, EB's with thick socks, very short shorts. Those were the days eh?

Come on, let's get some properly embarrassing ones up. Verdon 1990, first time I met Simon. Surprising that my wife lets me choose my own clothes given some of the trouser crimes I've committed in the past.

Shit. Well there I was having my first coffee of the morning only to end up spitting it all over the monitor in a mixture shock, shame, horror, embarrasment and pissing myself laughter!! Mark, I thought that pic was long gone...but no!!! one of my many, many hair crimes has come back to haunt me!!

[Eddies]

Me back in the day (1989-1990) messing about at windgather in my brand spanking new bermuda-shorts, Hi-tec mids with custom neon laces, fancy wrist-band and dads hat to top it all off!!!!

[Fiend]

I am liking this one a lot!

Good thread!

We need to see more classics from Andy P. Sadly Ive only been doing the climby business properly for about a year so my oldest skooly pic is below (taken in march). Some crappy 4b on nasty rock.

Here's me looking very cool - summer bouldering in 1993. Does this link work? http://www.ukclimbing.com/images/dbpage.html?id=58671

On a serious note compare this with the shot of me there this year. Yes I'm much fatter, but the rock and the ground have suffered badly.

Summer of Love? Have a nice trip  etc.

Telling pics indeed.

[Sloper]

The wife has just sorted a printer / scanner so I'll fish out a old school pic or two

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)




Yer man Nathan Wind on Pebble Wall , Caley, around '91 (check out the colourful leg wear in the spotting team - nice.)




This is me with huge Pod chalk bag on one of the Blackpool traverse walls, around '84




Me again, getting stuck into Samarkand, Anglezarke Quarry, circa '84

What spotting team (few too many folded arms in there for my liking) ?
Nice shell suit on the right.

Who would have suspected that, fifteen years on, the only one in the photo who doesn't look daft is the moustachioed Frenchman?

Does anyone know how to post pics from UKC direct onto here. Theres one of big ron on there that may be of interest.

[Bonjoy]

UKC don't allow cross linking. The best you can do is either save the pic to your computer and host it elsewhere, or failling that justs post a link to the UKC page.
