Soloed route 3 and 20ft crack. Felt like crying I was so happy. Yyfy

I know that feeling, felt the same after soloing a mod at Sennen after I fucked my back so badly.

Stoked for you.

Crapping fuck Scouse when I was being encouraging about a likely quick recovery I didn't mean that quick. Nor climbing near your previous best  ;) :P :P

Cheers...
I'm very pleased with the progress. Went to foundry last night and had a good time pulling on juggy problems and campussing. Lovely to be back down the wall.

After months of frustration with the wrist, followed by two months of being ill - finally feel back in the game. Sacked off sports climbing for bouldering and can spend the time better working out how to climb around a fucked up arm.
Had a boulder indoors at the Orange House this morning and managed a style of move that I've struggled with for three years. Means nothing to anyone else but actually feel like I can make some progress eventually.
Maybe the first time on the trip I've felt that that's the case.

Anyone wanna buy some yellow E9 trousers? I look a dick bouldering in them. I look a dick anyway but these things were a drunken mistake that needs rectifying...

28 years in the making..

At Minus Ten, Stoney today, with friends Matt and Joe. Beautiful when the sun was out.

I think I tried Sean's Problem for the first time, back in about 1988. For some reason, I'd never been able to stick the move where you reach over with your right hand, while standing on the two small edges above the break..

.. until today!  :dance1:  :2thumbsup:

I'll have to go back for the tick of course, but that was bloody fantastic. I was always solid on a lot of the other classics, but that one move was always a stopper, and doing it with only one of the small edges doesn't count. Trashed today too.

Mega.

Cheers boys  8)

Stiff boots with new edges help a LOT on that move.

Yes, damn right they do, £50 notes from Decathlon, slippers not so good. Old skool projecting requires Old Skool tactics!

And yes, that was with The Matt and The Joe, or is that The Matt and Joe?  ;D

Was pretty good out there actually, in the sun. Massive flood at Rubicon tho.

Not following the Shark finger board protocol definitely helped.

Thanks folks.  :)

Where will we all be in another 28 years?

Kelvin, that sounds like a sweet moment  :2thumbsup:

Stick with it, and the Banana Man pants - I'm sure that's a look you could carry off  ;D

At that price... they'll come complete with beer stains, blood and general dirtbag filthiness.
A Viv Westwood work of art almost.

Sorry TT. That was lame of us.

Just out for a jolly really, so didn't check Kudos etc, but yes, Zeke section was a washout.

Lime looked to be holding a surprising amount of water.
