Word on the street in Loup is that he's mainly gone to England for the grit!

I spoke to him on the Catwalk (Enzo didn't say hi) and he said they'd had 4 or 5 days at Malham and they'd been in Sheffield on the Grit before then. 15 days in total, half of that gone already. The group of them seemed pretty keen to know what was and wasn't dry at other Yorkshire crags, unsurprisingly really.

Send them to the Diamond, they can clear up the multiple 8c+'s and 9a's that haven't been done yet.

To go with their fixed lines?.... Welcome to England.

Funny how I (and plenty other non-F9a+ climbers) managed to do brass monkeys without 12" donkey lines. And with technique too!

Jordan is a whisker away from Rainshadow, rained off today but reckons it will go in the next couple of weeks! Best of luck to the man!

Tried this today as they were taking their draws and ropes down. They seemed more keen to get back to a ferry as early as possible (i.e. anywhere further south than Yorkshire) and get off this isle. However, the fact the diamond was near the see did seem to pique some vague interest for a minute.
