JINX
Did a lot of walking in Derbyshire as a kid with family and always ended up scrambling off track. Then after having a 'long break' went on a 'work stag do' which included a crack at Crib Goch still half cut. That was in 2008. Since then have done various low grade (probably up to V Diff) trad climbs and up to grade 4 scrambles. Did Crib Goch in winter conditions as well as Cneifon and Cyfrwy Arete (Table direct). Trip up Aonach Mor for Golden Oldie where we werent quick enough even after glissading back down and missed gondola (meant walk of shame down mountain bike track - gutted). Bosigran in June 2010 where we had hottest weekend ever! Black slab and commando ridge featured as well as coastal walk from Sennen Cove to St Ives with stop off at Zennor for a few well deserved pints.Location

Best Climbing Experience
Bosigran June 2010 - hottest weekend ever! Black slab D** kick started and highlight was havin a go at Commando Ridge and (for time of day and expected calm sea/nice weather) swells just before goin round corner to start first pitch. Not a great idea attempting with five of us...... Knocked it on head and two of group went back followin mornin to catch low tide and cracked it. Still waitin to go back and get it cracked myself. Other than that would say our Alps trip June 2010 - Weissmies, Lagginhorn, Dufourspitze and attempt at MontBlanc via Grand Mulets route.
