The spare original exhaust for my motorbike has arrived, and this means that my mechanic can now cut it and use it to fit the new one that I bought!!!

no we all saved the bottles for later (in total there were 2 magnums and 4 standard bottles)

in retrospect i'm glad we didn't have a champagne shower (it crossed my mind but wasn't bold enough to start it) as the owner kicked everybody out relatively quickly after the podium...that would have been the last time he offers champagne at his contests i think.

Recently had my best bouldering day ever: A Northern Soul (on my own so took some introspection to commit to), Titanic Arete (which I'd looked at before and semi-dismissed as far too burly), Iceberg (originally given an offputting grade but actually okay with some great moves) and The Prow (easier but really good fun). Not bad for a fat weak trad climber who lands like a sack of spuds.

It's a sped up metronome of course you liked it! I bet you ran around like an idiot doing 30 sets of 2 finger repeaters while it was on!

Strong!

But...


Vaguely disappointed by the unusually tame trousers.

Sorry....I do like a bit of a twat in all blue tho, yes?

Glad you quite liked the soundtrack Barras, for me it's possibly DnB track of the year already.

TT, thanks, I think I enjoyed Iceberg more though....that extended fingertip mono gaston move mmmmm.
