I notice the footage is discontinuous - theres a blip when you are in the no hands rest. I reckon he's telling porkies - who has ever seen him climbing? I mean, that no hands rest is easily the hardest bit of the problem, and he really looks to be labouring holding it. tsk  ;)

I went to the cave on two occasions with Dave to try cave life, and the way he does probably would warrant v12 - i mean no heel toe lock for the crux moves and no use of mad rock rubber stuck to his boot ;)

oh by the way, nice one dave! 8)......big link?

Have you tried it from the jug at the back Dave? this needs a second ascent, In Life V12, is a great problem.

Oh, thats how it works? if I do all the problems in the cave with only three fingers and one leg, and lets say - Boreal shoes, do I get an extra grade too? In which case I want an extra two grades for everything I did in Twins please.

nice one dave, makes the trips worth it

Dave - where are you getting trips from? I havent seen anyone selling acid in years.

Whats the cave like at the moment I was gonna quest down there tommorow seeing as the lakes is a wash out at the moment.

Its not too bad, but your probably find theres a wet hold on most problems. As the weathers looking pretty good tomorrow you'd probably be ok in some other areas like pil box and the little orme, i should be out and about tomorrow so would gladly give you the tour since your mates with Greg and Barnesy. Long way from the Lakes mind.

I'd be careful making comments like that on here Chris. If past experience is anything to go by, you will be lynched by several tearful posters making all sorts of accusations.

F.A.O buoux 8c: - What do you mean about 'tearful'? I'm not a regular visitor to these pages.... i'm not particularly bothered about the grade if thats what you mean....

I don't think he's referring to you Dave.

Mr Bucannon (spelling?).

Chris for once, inferred correctly.

My post did not imply to you, nor your ascent in any form- more it was a more personal joke between myself and Chris. If you want to find out the basis of my comment, look through my previous posts and the reactions i received when making similar comments to Chris's previous post.

Good send nevertheless.

I think its about time you put a disclaimer as your signature  ;), every post you make seems to be misconstrued.

Tell me about it. I've even taken to the extra effort of re-reading my posts from now on, to ensure they do not cause unwanted offence.

Still, it provides laughs nevertheless.

Paul, got your message this morning- will reply asap.
