despite torrid temps and tiredness, I went to do the thing with the rope today.
the beastmaker session are clearly paying out, I did a 7c+, long pulls between two finger pockets, third go.
the elbow seems to be not too achey, so...
YYFY!!!
oh fuck when I think the injury may be over (finger crossed, touch wood and so on), and I can start pulling properly, oh fuckfuckfuck I'm so excited!!!

Get in Crouchie!!! Super pleased for you home boy. Just add the garage to your GPS POI's and you're in business.

Parisella's ain't much use if your big end goes though.

I've seen it. It's comparable to two Atlantic prawns laid end to end. And a similar shape too.

Let's know when you're heading out Crouchie. I'm looking forward to seeing your driving style.

YYFY after a few email exchanges, the higher powers at the research institute where I am doing my PhD and live have allowed me to build a board in one of their garages.  Who said england's gone health and safety mad!
