Went to the board on monday, picked up a Sheffield Star up on the way, funny to see they cropped seb out of it, the only person who had set up a proper belay. That pick should give the council and the HSE enough reason to have us out by november. When I stepped outside last thursday the last thing I exepected was to get heckled from Nic stood in a "Titanic" esque pose on top of the school with one flimst runner at around 2/3rds height, never would of held.
Soon after getting there Dave and Ben turned up, and the session pretty much descended into trying anything and everything that we all thought was worth a pop. I don't think any one of us made it to the top of anything especially hard but we came close, my deviant right foot beta on Turd Reich proving good for not only me but Dave as well. Saw some major lanking manouvres from both dave and ben on Basic Ben, bet basic knitwear is a right ball ache if your tall....
We then switched our attention to the cressbrook board, which is rarely used. Nige turned up and soon joined us. Tried uncle crimpy guts but failed on the smallest hold. Tried stuperman, failed miserably, everyone got on a problem Ned and I climbed a while back, it's really good if a little sharp. I think dave want's steely fingers before magic wood in a month or so, if so, the cressbrook board is certainly the way forward.
Going up the board tonight but got woken up really early by the post man with a package and have been feeling pretty rubbish ever since....Hope its worthwile I just feel knackered.
