PHOTOS: Two Contrasting Weekends!
Last weekend I was working at Plas y Brenin taking people rock climbing in the rain, clocking up the miles on classic Tremadog Severes and VS’s and this weekend I was down at the Outdoors Show in my capacity as UKClimbing.com Editor. I took the opportunity to have a bash at the SkyMasters competition, where I managed a fairly respectable 10th place. Not too bad for someone more at home on Craig Doris than an upside down plywood wall.
During the week I managed to squeeze in a big party with lots of drinking and several people being sick, and Sarah and I also went out and bolted half a new route on the Slate, before getting rained on.
So here’s a few photos from the week. My favourite is Betty sleeping in the van in the car park at the NEC – it’s a rock and roll lifestyle…
