I didn't go so I can't give you a run down of what went on, but there was an event at the weekend at the NEC - there were lectures, trade show, comp and come and have a go if you think you are hard enough section to keep people entertained. All I know from a text message of Mark Croxall is that he got through to the final!

PlanetFear.com have a thread about it all here (http://www.planetfear.com/climbing/forum/t.html?t=1454). Theres a review by a German dude which Graeme Alderson ran through Google's translator engine and as you can imagine the translation is hilarious. Here's a snippet where he describes watching big Malc do the biz:-

Impressing!"
