Indian summer

Headed to the glendo with the paedo. Blagged our way into the car park when ped took advantage of cross cultural misunderstandings and pretended we were Mountain Rescue. Unfortunately he did not watch what code our young Indian friend punched in which would have cemented his status as some sort of prophet. Got coffee and they wouldn't give me a free ice cream flake, dicks. Big jim was in the shade but warm still so conditions were imperfect. Ped added yet more layers of pointless to our already entirely pointless subset of a pointless sport by successfully climbing the Big jane arete in 4 moves or 3 holds or something, god love him. I failed andy's ss, learnt nothing new. followed the advancing shade across the river, got left of egg ss with grace and style, also rails ss despite the greasy tips. UCDMC freshers were camped out in the sun on the upper path and the fin. Elbows felt fine after a week off with work which is a relief. Will start to vary my climbing locations over the coming weeks, maybe even lough dan once the ferns start dying.
