drove a fire engine on the road today,not blue lights as that can come later.
going from a truck driver,who are considered the lowest of the low on the roads to driving a big red truck when every stops at round abouts and lets you out at junctions is utter polar opposites.

I regard taxi drivers as the lowest of the low on the roads.

What about traffic wardens on mopeds? Surely they get a mention?

I just reached my PB on a problem I se on my board more than one year ago. I nearly stuck the fifth move.
 :yes:
Now I only have to start doing that move with some consistence, and then link that part to the hard bit.
 :wall:
Much more importantly, I am close to deadhanging pink monos.

Cheers guys!

Cheers, it was Robert Duvall at Pantymwyn. Really good problem.

Unfortunatly Voie Normale was wet when I checked it out on Sunday. So much so I couldn't towel dry it. Looks great though, one to go back for.

Managed to get a both climbing shoes on (and actually climb in them) for the first time yesterday evening. This is massive for me as I thought I might never get the same size Dragon back on my bad foot with how misshapen it still is (and probably always will be).

Actually climbed three ROUTES at Virgin gym too and although I'm not kidding myself that the grades were anywhere near and I onsighted 7a (it was about 2 grades easier) it was certainly the most / hardest climbing I have done since last June.

Then did jumping onto a crash mat at the physio this morning for the first time which felt ok.

It's all starting to come together and the pain is definitely worth it.  8)

I've got the Key (go on someone say it).

DIY starts tomorrow, move in when it's done. Then woody construction starts!

Thank you.

Lore, some minor work to be done (mostly by others, but I need to do some too), then phase 1 of woody build begins, just something to tide me over for the summer, then I'll crack on with next phases later in the year. Double garage so loads of space to play with.
