unflappable?

Went to the Slipstones on sunday.
This is a cool crag. The rock is good (for grit) with no big crystals/pebbles. Thought it might be wet, but the wind did its job and conditions were really good.
Dan showed me around, and we did some classics (sulky little boys, lay by arete etc.), then spotted him on some hard stuff and finally did sidewinder from sitting as is got dark. Was a nice day, but not the most productive!

Foundry round 2 was yesterday. No one was feeling particularly sparky (Katy and Tony got back from the Kranj comp at 2am and Ben was suffering from it being a monday!) but there were some good problems. Tony (Fritz) and Ben looked strong but each fumbled a problem a few times. I managed to wobble my way up some problems and not fall off as many times, so i finished first, with Tony in 2nd and Ben 3rd.

Resting today, then fitness session at the works with the Masonator on Wed. I am keen to hear all about his Swiss trip.

Probably 75% human and only 25% snot now, which is an improvement. Will hopefully be 100% by wed.
