I meant the Froggatt routes, they are screed at the bottom and it wouldn't take much to level that out,
A good example where either clearing or patioing would drastically reduce the seriousness of a route would be "Don't Slip Now" (E5 6a) at Curbar. Smallish but very angular boulders at the base which could easily be either moved or filled in but which are too big to be padded with a mat.
Yeah. You keep taking them out and the ground will get lower, fact.
waste of time where folk are determined to rant on despite not knowing what they are talking about.
much of this reminds me of the brass eye special when the politicians kicked off in 'outrage' and then admitted they hadn't actually watched it.
I'm venting an opinion on something which even without being seen up close and personal

Nice memory, but how do you square that with allowing people who don't live in sheffield right now also to post?

you sure won't be getting a spot!
Sounds like this should be the hottest new tick in the peak.Has anyone else actually climbed it since JB's reportage (07/02/07) - or are the floodgates still to be breached?
You'd love it if it became the hottest tick in the peak wouldn't you?!
QuoteBottom line is don't vent opinion on stuff you haven't seen.I've never seen badger baiting, but I still have an opinion on it. Sounds pretty bad, although I'm sure they'd say the badger enjoys a good scrap.If Si has changed his view he certainly didn't mention it when he popped round for a brew the other night.
Bottom line is don't vent opinion on stuff you haven't seen.

P.S. can anyone engineer a joke where the punchline is someone irish called Patty O'Building?
