Hi Doylo,

Whats the situation with the orme this weekend? Think the holidays are over soon, at least my missus is back to work monday. So is this friday the end of the restrictions?

How many hrs after hightide is LPT accessible too? I get this wrong pretty much everytime and get chased off the crag after a couple of routes.

Cheers
