High first bolt, I headed directly up towards the middle of the roof and was greeted by polished to hell holds, sweaty hands so popped of and fell about 15ft where I bashed my ankle on the way down, finally came to a rest with my feet on the ground! Shame it ended in a visit to A&E with a ruined ankle

Was commited above the second clip when I realised I hadn't tied in properly (shit!!), so cowtailed on to the third bolt to sort it out. What a hash.
