Best Climbing Experience
(i) Second ever time climbing outdoors, Middlefell Buttress (Gt Langdale), in excellent weather - had a sudden sense of belonging.
(ii) A rather spectacular sunset in North Wales with another Rocktalker - we just sat there watching it and dribbling (and had a mini-epic coming down in the dark, but that's another story!)

Fettling random bits of kit to do something better/different, still trying to invent a self-stirring mess-tin.
Also a big fan of bicycle bells. I can play tunes on mine. Nooo, don't run away, it's really interesting . . .
