Heading up there for a few weeks soon so trying to set my sites on a few things, looking at trad up to E1 and also boulder stuff up to V5-6, as i might be stuck for a belayer while i'm there.

What are the 'must-do' classics?

To many to list but some that spring to mind , routes: main wall, phantom rib, direct on Dinas mot, super direct, crackstone rib, brant direct, hangover, sabrecut, the corner, cemetery gates, bouldering then boysens groove is a must, king of drunks, utopia traverse, all stuff up there are well worth it

if it's busy, get on The Crevice on carreg wastad. Guaranteed no queues and great fun.

Got a feeling the popular stuff is going to have queues, school holidays are on!

Good point, in that case head round to gribbin facit for some quality but quiet climbing then up to caseg fraith ( not sure about the spelling! ) for some bouldering or up to sheep pen, can normally find space away from the crowds on some of the buttresses on cloggy if you avoid the well known routes.
