Excuse the inexcusable Gary Glitter reference. This has nothing to do with disgraced 70's glam rockers. Bryn however has been on the sharp end of a rope. He spent an Intensive 20 minutes learning to place runners on Fluted Columns which he climbed with aplomb. Everyone else seemed consumed by degrees of malaise, a pity as it was a truly spectacular evening. I couldn't even raise my gaze to the horizon to drink it in. I was bouldering on auto pilot as well and never really got going. Nice to see Bryn trying new games. I left a little disappointed as I had projects at all grades that shrugged me off. Surely though I must take this bit of rough and hope some smooth is coming my way soon. Talk of Dental Slab at Rylstone next week now there's a route to get out of a rut on.

About the Author
Dave has been climbing rocks for as long as he can remember, odd then that he isn't better at it. He lives in Harrogate as he can't afford to live any closer to Almscliff. He is hoping to get up Pebble Wall before his middle aged knees give out.
