I agree, it's whatever your prefer, but to say Ratho doesn't measure up in terms of climbing, I'm not sure what more you could ask for! The variety, extent and quality of climbing and bouldering available in the place is second to none.
Okay, there are a few areas where things could be improved like catering, temperature, puddles etc, but I for one go to a climbing wall to climb, not to sit around like it's a coffee house - I'd go to a coffee house for that.
I can't imagine ever going back to AR, and am disappointed when I'm restricted to 'just' going to Ibrox if I've got to stay in Glasgow.
