Weight following a familiar pattern. Lose weight at beginning of week when away in Manchester away from temptation then regain it when home. Spent some money on replacement spirits.

Would be insteresting to hear peoples thoughts on this, is it better to go around doing routes that take say 3 -5 goes, quick redpoints and slowly pushing the grade over time rather than doing one route that might take 10+ sessions? When I've taken a long time to do something in the past I defienetly feel like I've only improved on that one route.
Perhaps unsurprisingly my efforts to find partners for trad (or even sport!) who have equally short time slots at awkward periods is proving tricky.

Training to earn the higher numbers is more effective/efficient than a siege I reckonI'm sure you've seen:http://ukbouldering.com/board/index.php/topic,27039.0.html
Apparently Sunday was the hottest May temperature recorded in Font.
A good week, feels like I am making some progress. Didn't do my usual trick of trying to onsight everything but instead made a relatively efficient job of the redpoint. Billy Winspit is the wrong 7b for me but Avenging the Halsewell looks a good option here when the Promenade is wet. Plan: more of the same. Down in Somerset Thursday-Tuesday. Anyone around for short session at Uphill, Cheddar, Brean or Anstey’s?
