glenmac

completed a week of skin masochism with another trip to glenmac on saturday. started at the flaming tips boulder but found the scoop brutalising my palm and we moved on up to the rasher where i distracted myself doing a little trenching while the lads full irish'd. Up to dice boulders where i tried the left line of monkey burger ( Orion as named by harry) only a couple of times, felt hard on the skin. Gave monkey a good few goes, was comfortably getting my hand over the lip but was having trouble getting over the mental block of committing to the skin loss of actually trying to hold it. Looked at the mantle top out as well which i tried up to a point just to confirm it would go for me which it will, a fine example of the art. Tried what we thought was the line of smokey and the bandit on the back of the genesis boulder but hard to know. Figured out the tricksy start only to find the next hold a bed of razor crystals. Up to fiontar boulder, tried lip service problem a few times. Nice moves, hard start to match, then sequency and snatchy enough to slice my finger. Deceptively difficult problem but just need to link moves. Trenched a little here also. Bottled the jump onto the couch, true to form. Want to get into glenmalure while still feeling vaguely strong.
