This is not a test. Unless it is, and no one told me so I haven't revised, which means I'm going to fail. Thanks for that.

This weekend I...

  • drove up to Northumberland
  • put up my tent singlehandedly, in the dark
  • led my first routes for years, including a 'severe' which was a doddle
  • ticked my first outdoor 6a boulder problem
  • laughed and laughed at my friend's story of waking to find slugs on his face
  • temporarily stole my friends sleeping bag
  • got a tick and a mosy bite. insects are grim.
  • ate cereal in high winds
  • got chapped lips from said winds
  • took my tent down, singlehandedly in the high winds, without it blowing away (unlike my companions - and there were two of them working on their tent)
  • found out I need to go to Cornwall next weekend, never a chore :)

What did you get up to over the Bank Holiday?

wohoo! that sounds like an excellent weekend that must have left you feeling proud of yourself :-)

i've spent time with family, which was great as we only gather once every second year or so... just a consequence of being scattered all over the globe.

hm. i could really use some tent time.

Sounds like you had a good time too.

And I did feel quite proud of my tent abilities :)
