Title: Will Hunt - advice
Post by: shark on September 07, 2019, 08:41:26 pm
It may come to pass that I’ll be meeting Will Hunt tomorrow for the first time and sharing the Catwalk with him.

I fear it may ruffle my savour faire.

Advice please

All joking aside, Will is a genuinely lovely person. Its strange to me, he first came to my board as a callow youth something over ten years ago (he lived just round the corner then, with his mum and dad, and was curiously both very weak and occasionally surprisingly strong) and now he has a wife and child and all the trappings of adulthood - the passage of time is always strange and a little disconcerting in that way. But I would be delighted to know I was seeing him tomorrow.

Maybe the power of the Will will herald the day of the send?

I’m expecting to be harassed into attempting a redpoint in sub- optimal conditions rather than putting in some groundwork training links

Imagine how amazing it would be if tomorrow was the long awaited day of the Oak send and it got captured for the benefit of the guide.

Astonishingly abrupt transition from annoyingly impetuous youth to grumpy and far too sensible middle-aged married with kids sort. Plus far too secretly tall and needs a short leash regarding yorkshire grit mis-grading. It will be a beautiful bromance no doubt.

"Fairly Low Key". That's one for the headstone.

I also find Will disappointing in real life.
