Get in, The plan was to go Baslow and hit up the easy routes to solo and then have a little session at Flat World and The Eagle Stone. Driving over it was freezing, first day this year i've had to scrape ice off the windscreen, conditions were set to be perfect. So that was a week ago. And i've decided to complete the post and update people with my injury and rehab. I was...

Keeping you upto date with the crushings of a punter! Tuesday, 28 October 2014. Fontainehelm - Font in a ball bag. In February 2014 7 of us headed out to Font for a week to stay at The House. For Andy's stag do. We had such a laugh, pretty poor conditions as it was humid but we still climbed a few problems. I apologise for the poor selection of problems but for some reason these were the only clips i was left with. 3 x 8 sec straight arm 30 degree sloper (1.10 min rest between each). 3 x 8 sec straight a...

Keeping you upto date with the crushings of a punter! Monday, 12 September 2011. Lazy but also busy. I get so lazy filling this thing in sometimes. I think of something brilliant to write but then when it comes to it i can never be arsed. To sum things up though i've been climbing loads, found my psyche with a week long trip to Font booked for November and 10 days sport climbing in Spain in December i need to get strong and fit.

Keeping you upto date with the crushings of a punter! Saturday, 19 May 2012. After a cracking session at Longridge last week the psyche had returned to boulder. Finding myself with some time off me and Helen decided on a four day trip up to Northumberland, I'd always heard good reports about the place but just never found myself the time or the weather to get up there. This was to be the weekend though! Waking up Saturday to glorious sunshine and clear blue skies, psyched! Deffo one for the DFBWGC! All i...

Keeping you upto date with the crushings of a punter! Monday, 7 May 2012. Having spent the majority of time indoors still and not really touching real rock i was keen to get back out and the forecast for the bank holiday weekend was good but there was me on another kayaking course! As suspected he said it's a bit greasy and thinks its only just dried out. A quick MTFU self talk and i find myself in the same situation but this time a slight alteration of the body and BOOM!

Keeping you upto date with the crushings of a punter! Monday, 1 September 2014. On the blog again. So seems like reading my last post when I promised I would be posting more i must have been lying. What have a been doing? Well, turns out to be an awful lot. After the winter and getting to this level i knew that the focus would have to shift this year and more time spent in the hills on big mountain crags and sea cliffs getting some finalising routes in before i went for MIA training which i finally compl...

Keeping you upto date with the crushings of a punter! Wednesday, 19 October 2011. Lakes, Lakes, Lakes. I had never done much climbing in the Lake District up until lately. Last weekend I went on a bit of a social visit so didn't think i would get much climbing done but managed to get out both days and get some ticking done. The morning was taken up by visiting my cousin Craig and his wife Liz, the plan was to go to the school where he works and to help him on a few things with his new climbing wall.

Keeping you upto date with the crushings of a punter! Sunday, 25 March 2012. There is something strangely satisfying about visiting a new crag, sometimes these end up being world class and you wonder how you had never been there before, others you can't wait to leave and never return. Each year i try and set myself a goal to visit 20 new crags in the UK, so far this year i have managed to go to 6 already! Monday, 19 March 2012. After a slight set back on the MIA front, this year is going to be a year of ...
