Up to far too many other things other than climbing, like commuting to London to commute and swap swaps. Being based in the Peak these days, I'm doing less quality climbing than I'd like (the rock is not a patch on South East Wales), but keen to go out when I can make it, especially if this avoids grit. I don't boulder, but I sometimes waste a lot of time fiddling in nuts instead of doing moves - Trad Climbing I think its called. I am recovering from a shoulder operation (Type II SLAP lesion repair), but I am going to win :-)

Best Climbing Experience
Most things done at Ogmore, especially hanging out in the middle of nowhere on things like Phaser, Burn 'Em Up, The Uncanny etc. They'd been even better if they were stapled up....
