Is excellent, we went up with the left hand, the other problems there didn't look up to much but we didn't look at them all
Is that not........

Time for the Tipp-Ex methinks Jim.  You can borrow mine when I've finished with it.

To be fair we went more or less direct to the top rather than out left, just with the left hand. Remember there are 1789 non-eliminate straight ups in the forest

You can definately get your tip-ex out for this one http://bleau.info/isatis/1516.html

It seems 67% of ascensionists don't think I should.

Right then, just to big up the recommenders of Compression Ministrelle, it was ace, though your elbows won't thank you for using it as a warm up! Also here I liked Tiens Bon la Hampe!, I had to jump for the good hold (and thought solid 7a), so it may well be not as fun/much more difficult if you're taller/shorter than me. The 7b to the left looked/felt class too, but sadly skin and the last ferry prevented an ascent.
Other good shit we found:

Tendance - great arete, easing all the way. Like the look of Arc-en-Ciel as well, but a bit beyond me at the moment.

Plein Ciel - quality, even in the sun. Double/Triple Axel where awesome too, but don't really belong on this thread.
