1 - Not get permanently exhausted through working too hard.
2 - Be fit and strong enough to really make the most of the Banyaks boat trip in May.
3 - Finally climb a Font 7b problem (I've made it to 7a+ each year).
4 - Do lots of routes in the Summer - particularly away from the Peak
5 - Drink less and eat healthier
6 - Get lots of sleep.
7 - Acquire less stuff.

Amen to the first part, as for the second, honestly, don't bother, its stuff only locals could love, and even then only a minority do.

Well my climbing list I think is

1. get fitter
2. climb more
3. get my climbing head to a better place

Hmm sounds like my list every year  :-\

Think I need some definate goals, will have to do this thing that so many other boulderers do, and get myself a project  ;D
