Post by: Somebody's Fool on July 31, 2007, 10:18:09 am: Really good effort. He was trying this in 2002 when I first visited Ceuse. I don't know how much he's tried it since but it must have been in the back of his mind for a long time. It can't be often he leaves a crag without his intended route bagged up. Especially one of such significance.

Post by: BenF on September 07, 2007, 12:14:50 pm: Actually that poster is rather classy find Golt. Having studied it a little closer than I did earlier, I've fallen in love with the idea that these guys are bringing music as played at Gatecrashers (sic) and Ministry to Workington. Along with live premiership football on the biggest screens in Workington. Oh yeah and with lots of drink promotions.

Brilliant.

Oh yeah, Dave Graham sends Realization yadayadayada :yawn:

When I have finished my next degree and am a qualified architect who designs yet more blocks of empty "executive" flats all over Liverpool, I'll waste my time building huge dance arenas in non-typical locations such as Workington, Street, Tadcaster and Rannoch. Thanks for yet more life changing inspiration Ben.

No problem.

Well done for putting out more off topic bait that you know I'll take ::)
