I've never mastered quoting from multiple posts, so ...

@Will Hunt - I know many academic families who live spread out over often great distances, but we will be moving (slight caveat: salary negotiations not yet concluded) which means @cheque, not transatlantic bouldering sessions.

@SAChris, early in my career I taught fatboyslimfast, of this parish, so at least one

@Fiend, a nice idea, if only I were currently actually a climber in any meaningful sense (we'll see what the future brings)

@duncan, if only ...

Does this mean a move is on the cards? It feels like a stupid question but I know some academics have positions at institutions where they work mostly remotely.

If, like TomTom, you're going to be commuting from Pennsylvania to Denmark, stopping off and bouldering at variopus locations on the way then I for one would love to read about it on Power Club.  ;)

Bermuda?

That is most definitely the plan. Full time climbing, running and snowboarding in winter.

14 sessions this year, multiple dryfires when feeling good, two split tips, and had to wait for snow to send.  But it finally got done!
