In reply to UKC Articles: I enjoyed that, nice one Mark. That is more how the crag articles should be in the magazines I think, rather than a dry fact-file which don't even have enough information to get you up a route.

>I feel jealously and sorrow for this young boy, jealous that he has the opportunity to experience the adventure of such an outstanding route, but sorrow that he has lost the opportunity to make such an ascent for himself in a few years times. For me it was one of those more memorable experiences, for him just another day out with his father.

Blimey, what a totally bizarre thing to think, let alone say.
