Thanks for coming to the meeting.

I have updated the first post with some more info if people are interested.

Yay I'm coming, can't wait (for the hardcore hungover climing on the 1st)!!!

ah what! you can afford to go to scotland but not to buy my calendar!?

Great work on the weather info Starley. Looking good at the moment, wonder how long it will last...

It is an idea to bring rock boots, as if we have any bad weather days then there is potential for climbing at an indoor wall.

Also if possible please bring a pillowcase, as pillows are provided if you provide a pillowcase!

It should also be pointed out that the indoor wall has a hot tub in it (or did last year), which does cost extra money....but is a hot tub, in a climbing wall, so you can sit there relaxing while watching everyone shag...

Lifted from ukclimbing:


Phew, nearly there, phew, just a bit more. Slack, SLACK! Clip that peg. Thank f*ck. Right, gear in, where? Ahhh, hotaches f*ck, f*ck, fuuuuckk, shit, I think I’m gonna be sick, f*ck, come on you bastards ahhhh god that hurts ahhh come onnnnn! Got to get some gear in. Try this crack. Nope. Ah this looks like a good one, just dig the ice out. Bastard, flared. Try this one, blind. Kick a better stance……there. Right, try this…..yessss. Bomber! Clove hitch on that, clove hitch on the peg, SAFE! Three bits of gear my arse. Two tugs on the rope. Come on. What did he say? He must be off belay now. Take in. Wish I could see him. Wish I could hear him. Ah slack rope. Take in, take in, take in, take in. Where the f*ck am I going to put all this? Sure I climbed farther than that. Tight rope. On belay, shag when ready………….

Look at those bastard clouds coming in, hope he hurries up. Think I need a dump. Thwack! F*ck me that hurt, Thwack, if he knocks one more bit of ice down I’m gonna ram this ice axe up his arse! Thwack! BASTARD! Need to swap legs, nope that won’t work, I’ll just turn around, f*cking pack’s in the way again, f*ck it, I’ll just take the pain. WHAT IS HE F*CKIN DOING? He’s stopped now, must be there, oh, moving again, Christ it’s just a stroll, get the f*ck on with it! Hands are getting cold now. Toes are getting cold. Those clouds are moving in. Wonder what time it is? Was that SAFE? WHAT? Can’t see him. Was that two tugs? He must be there by now. I’ll start stripping the belay….. SAFE! Oh well, I heard it that time. OFF BELAY! Wait, WAIT!
