no disc again so back to the quarry to enjoy the weather. james went up yorkshire pud for openers which had me eyeing ghost speculatively. on my way up after him i skipped left and had another look at the various holds and positions, felt very comfortable. used a different method to get to the niche than when following paul, found it much more reliable. felt good but still nervous. james led another then back we went and off i went (with the two statesmen joe and jim gernon making me nervous casually plodding up masochist beside us.) really enjoyable , real pleased with my head space up the run out upper bit. doing it in this style did in reality take a bit away from it but i'll save those ethical considerations for if i ever keep up the routes a decent amount.

  1. Nice one, sounds like you're going well on the routes. Time to head back up north for a rematch with Fair Head? :-) Ghost is a quality route. And I made a meal of the bottom bit last time, so don't take that as any kind of reference as to how it should be done!
