Ah - Martin of Martin and Simon.  :wave:

Hows it going - still see any of those guys. Haven't seen any of them since leaving Uni.

I seem to remember stopping at your folks house for supper before the Berghaus wall comp - many moons ago.

Sam,

I ended up in sunny Scotland..

Gav moved to Hexham.

Tony got married, had 2 kids and is now separated - he pops up on ukclimbing if you are interested.

Irish Vince went back to Ireland funnily enough, and Big James was in winchester last time I heard.

Our lad is back in Stockton when he is not trying to kill himself on his mountain bike.

Where is this "sunny" Scotland of which you speak? Must be different from the one I live in

After flicking through a couple of climb mags (going free) in the planetfear closing sale I came across the above shot of Bentley on True North.

That's Jerry on Ekel, UIAA 9+. A couple of weeks ago I did what Jerry would have done, and flashed it. Jerry of course didn't flash it, he did the first ascent of it in the early '80s, but he would have flashed it had he not. I think Bonjoy flashed it too.
