One for NW local locals
April 26, 2007, 09:27:14 pm
Was told in work today about this. The lad who posted the shots and info on UKClimbing by all accounts looks like he's come under (understandable) criticism. Obviously for the most part it looks gash but there were one or two shots that looked semi (and I'm using that word delicately) interesting.

Those roof problems might well be hard and good in the heat of summer, but please don't listen to my 'intrepid' words.

Oh oh.

This shot in particular was intriguing - Worthy?

I am well and truly braced for the onslaught from you Ben  ;)

More fool you Richard for exposing yourself to the currently hot hot desert of Fontainebleau. Hard things lurk in that Cavern that you will miss out on if you go tomorrow. Probably best just to give your ticket away and clean up that cavern as you say.  ;)

"Nordic society for clay research" sounds truly rivetting. I'll be doing that sort of stuff in a few years time.
