Hi all,
Climbed alot when a teen, indoor, outdoor, bouldering, leading, and pitched climbs.
16 years later i want to get back into it, have lost all fitness i used to have some i'm right back to the beginning :S.
My aim is get too a wall once a week in the evenings after work, but i also want to practice at lunchtime in work. I work in Holmewood (outside chesterfield) and this site has been so useful in finding nearby spots!
I'm mainly looking at Pleasley Vale area, especially the Meaden Tunnel

as places to start (tunnel good in winter!).
Downside is all climbs seem quite full on for a boulder noob, what advise do you have for technique etc, i went to a wall last week and did a 5 and 5+ but felt a little all over the place.
Cheers
