Im all for a bit of self deprecating humour - if I mock myself people can't punch me for it. I guess the idea was to make myself look a bit stupid, otherwise I wouldn't have included all the bits of my totally retarded behaviour in that video. Half of the team was enthusastic, the other was just slightly miffed I think.

people can always punch you, self-deprecating or not.

Charles didn't look particularly enthusiastic, especially with the bottle!

Yeah. I was being a bit of a dick  :wank: There was a moment of misunderstanding and I wanged a water bottle at him so he squared up to me. The initial anger subsided as fast as it came on though. Good old Charlie   :kiss2:

Might not have subsided so quickly if you'd fucked the camera up though.

There was only a tiny bit of water in the bottle so I don't think it would have done much. I'm sure Charlie and Dave are probably sat at home now (they are revising), probably seeing me getting rinsed on here and pissing themselves. He has puntered me for being a knob already anyway.

I think it was cute you all were wearing coordinated colours. Do you do that every time?

We try to co-ordinate over the course of the week. Charlie has always been the most fashion conscious so he sets the rules:
Mondays - Warm earth tones - Oranges, reds, browns.
Tuedays - Sarongs in summer, roll neck jumpers in winter
Wednesdays - Casual day - Usually "just" jeans and a t-shirt, although as we are all such fashionistas this has recently become more competitive. Fortunately our selfridges personal shopper is on speed dial and knows our skin tones so can usually have something sent over in advance.
Thursdays - Tend to be washing days in preparation for the weekend. Quite often a dangerous mish mash. Once I mixed a ruffled Alexander McQueen shirt with Dior leather chaps. What was I thinking. Needless to say Charlie was outraged.
Fridays - Party time. We begin by co-ordinating underwear in case we happen to make advances on the same girl and we are all equally successful. Animal print thongs are the current fave. We even have some specially made from Pal Zileri made with real mink. Always a hit with the ladies. This is topped off with a pair of jeans - Almost always Dior or Versace, and a shirt, we like to go British for this though as there are far too many goons out on Fridays. A subtle Paul Smith shirt or Thomas Pink usually cuts it. This is finished with a light spritzing off a fresh Eau de Parfum. We are big fans of Space N.K. for this one.
Saturdays and sundays we spend rolling around naked lathering each other in Patchouli oil.  :shag:

I have been mostly climbing in late period S7 pants mixed with contempory streetwear brand tops such as Supreme Being, Carhartt, American Apparel..
We should meet up, sounds like you could give me some great ideas for more cutting edge crag wear..

Why do people finish the Press at the lower jug?  I thought the rules were that you had to finish high the first time you do it?

Was not aware of such rules. The book makes it sound like you just get the jug. So if the first time you do it you have to keep going, does that mean for all the various extensions you also have to keep going?

I wonder what the axiom is there  :-\

Basically you have crushed the shit out of the hard bit.  The next few moves (to another jug) are very easy in comparison.  I'd still take the tick and just add the extra 2 moves next time when you are lapping it  :)

nothing climbing related sadly, but yesterday i had a yyfy moment while cycling home from work, when i scored the first pair of tits of the season, thanks to the heat wave of these last days.
they were tiny pointy little boobs, perfectly proportioned, moving under a deeply unbuttoned shirt.
moreover, they were perfectly coherent with the girl they belonged to, so it's been very pleasing.

YYFY - every time I go to Curbar I tell myself that this time I will do Strawberries - yesterday I finally did it!  :bounce: Subtle adjustment of the left foot and just latched the jug. What followed was a scene of hideous incompetence as I lost the ability to use my feet and hauled myself up using brute force and simple bloodymindedness that I was not going to fall off the problem at this point (again). Sorry to anyone who was unfortunate to see it.
