It's driving me mad 17(c). Is the route great wall?
Isn't 17c Ed Drummond on Great Wall in Hard Rock refering to Pete Crew who was talking him up it.
1 f - the Johnny slate route was The Quarryman, I think.8d T Rex at Gogarth, of course.Is the 4d bolt Fred Zimmerman at wherever FZ is - Caley?13 a Suicide Wall done before Kipling Groove13 b Central Buttress done before High Neb Buttress13 c Wall of Horrors before Great Wall13 d SW Cratcliffe before SW Bosi13 e Gogarth done before Old Man OH14 Pete Biven (Bosi), Peter Harding (Cratcliffe) and Chris Preston (Ogwen)
Johnny - the county in 15b was presumably Yorkshire.
Limestone (e) should be made into cement.
and I think all limestone routes are 6b with small holds, aren't they?
16(c) is Windhover overhanging the road17(a) is Menlove Edwards, I think.20(a) - is it Snowdon(b) is Ben Nevis, presumably
(c) is Scafell, or maybe I mean Scafell Pike.
Can't make much impression on 21, I'm afraid, Neil, though I think the chairman in 21f is Paul Nunn, and is that Dennis Gray to his left? I can't place the speaker although he's very familiar indeed.
On reflection is the speaker in 21F a young Neil Foster?!
And is 21B Yuji?
So I guess Johnny thought all limestone was 6a, and should limestone be made into, I don't know, underpasses? Road bridges? Bus stops?
21f Geoff Birtles on the left and is it Mark Hutchinson at the back.

I think the 4 seated climbers are Yuji, Ben Moon, Boone Speed and Jibe Tribout. The 5th one on the screen I thought was a younger Yuji but probably isn't.

I thought you would have known this.....?Given the names on the memorial, I'd guess it's Lakes/Fell & Rock related. If it's not Scafell, then Great Gable?
Then Carl Dawson, presumably.
18b is vexing me; I know I've seen this book. It's not some edition or other of Portrait of a Mountaineer, is it?
