βeta: Hi all, if someone is climbing Tension or Black and Tan today and you find a pearl earring at the base it belongs to me! Lost it yesterday. They were my mums so bit sad I lost one! Please keep an eye out and drop me a line if you spy it, I suspect it’s long gone :(

βeta: So didn’t look all that from below meaning it looked not particularly good but boyee this is a beauty. It’s all there & you in a fantastic position as you step of the niche left & up the vertical face. Loved it, nicely lead by Andy B
