Splashdown -  Widdop
John Dunne Slap - Earl
Flying Arete -  Almscliff
Horn / sit start on suckers wall /Mr Smooth (V3 though) -  Caley
Small Smart / Smarter / Big bash/ Big Bay low roof traverse -  Bridestones
good suggestions there (but i'm adamant that the horn is V3 - could well be very wrong on that score).

I've not been to the Bridies for many years due to erosion related self imposed exile. Are any of those badly worn out? If so should we consider not recommending them (or the crag in general as it's k-nackerred - discuss)?

Checked out the John Dunne Slap looks fantastic and I have the belly for it if not the arms.

Not a big fan of FLC either, always seems to brutalise my tender fingers. What does Pebble Wall at Caley get in V Money?

do you mean "Low Pebble Wall"? If so it's hard V2 or easy V3 i'd have thought.

Early morning brain fuck. Meant the one at t'Cliff. Low Pebble Wall is great though, regardless of grade.

I think "Pebble Wall" at the cliffe gets a 5 in V money - agreed on "LPW". Both highly recommended

Agree - Pebble Wall is V5 / Font 6c, and fucking quality. Now that I can do it.

Low Pebble Wall at Caley is good as well, but not a patch on the above.

Thanks Big Frank, but a bit slow on the uptake :wink:

Cookie Monster is good, but the top out was made purely of scrittle yesterday.

Haven't been up there for a couple of years or more. CM is one of Jons problems.
Should make the effort as I drive past twice a day.
