Curbar welcomes rock-shifting choadage

It seems that yet again curbar proves to be some kind of prat-magnet for cretinoids who like to move massive blocks around underneath boulder problems. you'd like to think that this being the doing of climbers would be out of the question but frankly i wouldn't put it past some people. luckily its not right where you land.

What about them? Has someone pulled up the shark’s fin that you landed nowhere near when you fell of GW? How much of a mess? Have they succeeded or left half in/out?

If we move it to the right place, will Great White become E5?

We managed to roll the offending boulder back to near where it should be on Friday. Couldn't get it quite to it's original position as there were only two of us and it's quite heavy but it's completely out of the way of the problem now anyway. Must have taken some effort to drag it out in the first place and with the overgrown state of the walk in I can't see why anyone other than climbers would have been there. Choads.

I read a definition of the word "choad" somewhere which was along the lines of "a penis that is shorter than it is wide". This suggests someone of such a stature as would benefit from using a cheat stone. Has some penisy boulderer been trying to work the crux of Great White without having to do the first moves?  :-\

Jasper says that it took a bit of effort to move the Choad Stone, a fact which suggests to me that more than one choad was involved.

So, Assistant Choad; here is your chance to grass your mate up. The courts will be lenient with anyone who turn Queens evidence.

More from CSI Curbar next week...
