I'm currently perfecting (writing) the trip report for the 2007 pembroke adventure. Time has withered away my once sharp mind and i can only really remember what I climbed. Could you all let me know what you guys achieved and on what days (if possible), and your favourite moment from the trip.

Thanks for your help.

PS: my favourite memory was watching Shaggy struggle to shag Limbo (VS) because he simply couldnt fit underneath the overhang.

Me&Tom did preposterous tales on the 2nd day (I think), the only other thing I can really remember is the day on Giltar slabs - which was great till I had to swim to get my belay plate back

Towing Shaggy round the field from the back of Mark's van was good.

Mark and Sam getting back having completed the LAMM complete with bouldering was pretty amusing.

Have to have a think about climbs.

Watching Ant on "The Butcher" (E2 or was it E3?) was pretty awesome.

Watching Tom A Murray dressed in a beech shirt dragging up a big boulder to the bottom of a shag to help him start seconding Ant up an E2 5b was pretty funny

me james and tom did inner space at careys. tom did the least graceful move i have ever seen in my climbing life on Hercules where he got stuck in a lying down position and all his gear placed itself. Very funny[/code]

Oh yeah that rock fell directly onto my head from quite high above - proof that our helmets work! I lead a pitch of my first VS on that day (my last day) and also on that day had a meeting with a seal - I was sat belaying when it suddenly popped up and stayed there treading water for a little while watching me (were you there then Stu and Jules?), it was a nice change from being watched by maybe a sheep elsewhere!

Bivvy bag sleighing was pretty fun (apart from thinking that people were going to end up under the wheels) and fitting everyone in Rich's car.

I also liked the fact that it was nice enough that I could shag in my bikini most days!

And piggy back wars were quite fun too.

Yes, i did in fact perform the worst piece of climbing ever (fact) with Little Dave in company on Hercules, part of my tour of classic HVS climbs, including Army Dreamers with a particularly sweaty Stu.

I was in tow when Ant claimed First Blood E2 5c (hard) and Monster Growth From the UnderBeast (E2 5b - hard, long and impressive lead, requiring boulder on 2nd, perhaps best route name of the week).

Jules, Katie and probably many more all impressively led the brilliant Sea Mist.

Helen Roddis however was the most impressive person all week, being a girl who could throw. This was breathtaking.
