Nibs had a cracking evening in the boozer last night and I feel privileged to have met the legend in the flesh  :bow:
Top bloke, hope he won't be too scarred having had to spent the night in the company of Tom and Rich....

I had a dream about meeting Nibile last night. I was made up at meeting the legend, and noticed he had very soft furry hands, can anybody confirm this?

Somewhere good you say? Sure he would have been psyched for today's devil's gorge session. ;)

Somewhere good you say? Lucky he'll be in font in a couple of hours. As Jim's so fond of saying, you can't polish a turd.

Bumped into the man himself on his way to Cuvier this morning. Nothing else to say about that really.

probably, I don't go to caley that often any more, shame really.

Next time your over, come for a week and you'll get a proper tour. Have you been to earl crag yet? this is probably the best grit bouldering crag in the country IMVHO
