Title: Anston Stones from the South East this Sat 11th August
Post by: Omar15 on August 09, 2012, 09:53:30 pm: Aiight,

Bit short notice but im heading up to anston stones this saturday and there's space for someone else - leaving from Maidstone so can pick you up if you're near craggy 2 or anything. I've got to be back by 6 in the evening so was going to leave mine about 6am.

Would be great if we could split diesel or come to another "arrangement".

Cheers,

Omar

Post by: nicboarder on August 12, 2012, 12:29:41 am: the south sucks ass... Why on earth did move down there. I keep coming back up north to get some climbing done. though will probably be in Winchester next weekend :( cos I can't afford the fuel to come back up north - If anyone knows of somewhere to go or a trip out. Cutting out eyelids sound preferable to being a boulderer in the south. There is a desperate need for a decent bouldering wall down there too. Wish Mr Dunning would expand to the south or something. Seems the only bouldering walls are in London or Bristol. Reading is ok but it is like a fight to the death to get on the plastic it is so busy, and I tried Calshot and some garbage smaller walls that charge 11 quid and frankly there is more resin in the crusher holds cellar than on their bouldering wall. Why did the creators of tis fine universe not lavish the south with some boulders hmmm...
