At a crag Saturday and people where sat eating their butties under routes and rocks fell down, twice as I saw, with all the usual shouting and bawling, and the butty eaters looked up all surprised and a bit aggrieved. Get with the programme dim shits and chose a better place to eat, and if you are going to sit there, at least keep the helmet on that you wore when climbing, its not foolproof we know, but wtf not wear it in possibly the most dangerous spot at the crag.
Here endeth the rant.

Agreed, but
Dogs should rather be the first to be moved somewhere else to chill out rather than right underneath a lose climb.

Without passing judgement bare in mind in the UK you can be legally responsible for what you knock down on to others!

I'm totally with you on this. No matter how careful any of us are, rock fall is inevitable sooner or later and the threat of it should be of constant concern to those positioning themselves at the bottom of cliffs. Lets face it, such an event does not even need a human being to trigger it, so why anyone up top should suffer outbursts from those underneath is unclear. If whoever, needs a gentle reminder of rock falling without necessarily being hit by it, can always take a trip to one of the Wye Valley crags such as Shorn Cliff or Symonds Yat, where they can listen at regular intervals to the dulcet tones of rock plummeting through the canopy.
