I come bearing biscuits

"scoff, scoff, scoff" - oops, they're all gone.

This weekend I...

• ran 5 miles before 9am on a Saturday
• saw about 30 frogs having a mating frenzy
• inherited a cocktail dress with cocktail recipies on
• nearly bought a suit jacket
• got a carpet burn on the bridge of my nose while trying to win 'the box game' on the stairs
• was too hung over to balance
• went through my finger tips skin after pulling onto only 1 problem at Ramshaw
• wore the worlds biggest jumper
• fell asleep on the sofa

How was your weekend?

Phraseology

"equal ops all the way to the gutter"

I just used this phrase in a probably ill advised email exchange.

Time for something bold

Cheer up love

Ah, FOTC, how I love thee.

Imagine the happiness when this popped into my head, forcing the clouds of miserable self-reflection out:

"Why can't a heterosexual guy

tell a heterosexual guy

that he thinks his booty is fly?

...

"Not in a gay way

just in a hey man

I wanna say that you're looking ok man"

New trainers!

My climbing boots 'Rockstars' by E volve - incredibly small and painful! Mean ass edging power.

The boyfriend at 'the unit'. Some friends built this climbing wall in an industrial unit. It's amazing.

My warm up route consists of holds named: moby, jug, rogan josh, hers, yours to name, bottom and lava lamp.

WOW.

Blanket inversion - Roaches, Staffordshire.

Some photos of the amazing cloud inversion (where atmospheric conditions mean the cloud is really low, like fog, and you can get above it and look down on it) we saw on NYE 08, as promised.

It was -6 oC in the freezing fog (the cloud inversion) but gorgeous and sunny all day above the clouds.

Snow day!!!!

We're having the best snow here for years and years. Chaos! Cancelled buses! Schools closed! Sledging! Snowball fights!

I still have to go to work though :o(
This is what my journey looked like this morning.

tyre tracks in the snow

bye the time I got to work I was plastered in the white stuff :o)
