Hot off the press (about 10 mins ago), Siobhan Coughlan has just ticked Ben's Roof at Ravens Tor and is mighty happy!  :)  :D  :lol:

Looks like I'm cooking tonight. Hang on I cook every night.

When I spoke to her last night its not all dry apparently! the right hand end is starting to seep.

Such a good effort - is this the first female ascent?

I know Lisa Rands did it either earlier this year or last year.

Lucy has tried it, but not done it yet.

Bugger. In the scramble to report something newsworthy (its been a slow week) I have neglected my editors duty to check the facts first. I suppose this is a bit like Piers Morgan and the faked iraqi soldier pictures, only almost completely insignificant by comparison.

I will change it now. Good to have you back Doylo.
