In reply to Fredt:
Hi Fred!
I'd just like to say that I ran into your trip to the Peak last week (and the week before, and the week before...) and I'd like to compliment you on the fact that all your old farts were moaning cantankerous old gits.
There's a lot of talk on here about how older climbers these days are all polite, friendly, helpful, well dressed and good looking - well, some of them may be but I can reassure anyone who's worried that your lot certainly won't be like that!
