on a plus side about the guide, I like the use of colours to represent grade groups (eg red for 7's, yellow for 6's...) and also the conditions/weather beta page. I am also psyched by some of the photo's to go and try problems that I haven't looked at before although there needs to be a balance as there are far too many photo's taking up room where all of yorkshire grit bouldering could be in one guide.
The picture of 1000.Dave's massive chin on larger larger brings a smile to my face especially after his ranting on these forums. I just hope thats not your sex-face as well as your crux-face Dave.

Surely you mean "Lager Lager Lager".

Or should that be 1000.dave's Passage?

funny that, several of my UKC posts have also been deleted - in particular one asking why so many posts had gone missing. it seems you can only be on the forums if you toe the party line - say anything they happen to disagree with and it disappears

he apologized in an email for removing my posts.

Well that's ok then.........

I do not wish to be associated with this website or many of its more pathetic users.

So why do you still come on here then?

Sorry.
Just when someone slags so much, initiates a Ryan AND says they never want to be associated with a bunch of pathetic people I would hoe they had the decency to stick to their word.

Evidently I'm being unfair.   :shrug: 

End of.

Too right!

I love the logic of the Witchhunter

Sink?  Burn her!!

Float? Burn her!!

Personally, I think 1000.dave should be forced to repeat my shittiest Pass problems for an eternity or admit to witchcraft.

on a plus side about the guide,



...aye back to topic - it looks good and diagrams are pretty well handled as well as the maps. A lot of work has gone into the book & it shows. I don't want to be too negative about the photo's - but some of them are not worthy of the guide IMHO - only if for the fact that the light is poor in a few of them and its a shame that some of the topo's are so dark as well...

sunn dun't cum owt much in yarkshire ...
