The Huber picture is from 1994 , which upon reflection may not qualify for "old" (still 17 years!) although I think he is at least rocking a rather old-skool look.

Bill Wayman and Nigel Shepherd about to start New Dimensions, Castell y Gwynt:


I think they look like yosmite climbers from the 70's

The Redhead and Fawcett ones are my favs

Here's the last set to distract from this abysmal weather we're having  :

Dossing at Parisella's circa 1984:


Pete Bailey escaping from Craig y Don Lower (if you know the crag you'll know how much that jug must have sucked!):


Gary Gibson, Homo Sapien:

Fuck the site's crashed. Was going to post the whole thing on here as rereading it, it's dynamite.

EDIT - Er slackers how do I post it when it's a .pdf?

EDIT - I'll shut up, you've already done it.

Still had it open in my PDF reader so have mirrored it here.

(@Jasper : You can't embed PDFs to the forum only link to them, I was going to stick a copy on the Wiki, but it only permits jpeg/png/gif upto 2Mb hence hosting it at the above site)

Classic article. I see Gav rates The Thing at Crag X at 'english 7c'. Where did at all go wrong?

COME IN NUMBER EIGHTY TWO: YOUR TIME IS UP

[grimer]

Petejh, have you gotten pics off Steve the Pro, Steve Lewis? He must have tons of great Ormes shots.

What's the first word in the description of that hero at number 6? Looks like "Buffet".

Cheers for finding that, not seen it for years.

The original draft was a lot more cutting but was deemed to be either to insulting or to down with the "in Crowd" by Gill.

I really cant believe i was that nice to Smythe,  its only now the beastmaker boys have realised he was so far ahead of everyone. Although i cant find any mention of warming your hands up under the grill on there website.

[Stubbs]

That picture of El Mocho is amazing!

Great article, I love digging up these old mags.

Still managed to get references to Neil's eggbox haircut and Al Murray "top 10 stamina lout" in though.

Very true.

No I haven't but I'd like to, could you pm me his contact details please. Thanks.

The same goes to anyone else reading who's got pics from North Wales Limestone - I still need lots of photos for the guide

[andy popp]

Al Murray "top 10 stamina lout" in though

I always particularly enjoyed 'Al has plodded his way up numerous etc. etc.' Classic.

My legs looks so spindly, even in baggy trousers
