An Idle Weekend

Jun 08 08

Ynys had been so good the weekend before that we decided to go again….

Via the now obligatory trip to the Molewyns…

Nice rough rock on ‘Block’

Sunday dawned glorious and everyone had big plans….Cloggy, Cyrn Las etc.

But me and Chris in our idleness had different ideas. Where was the closest to the road we could find?

Probably the Grochan…

So here we are on ‘Brant’

and ‘Phantom Rib’….a great climb and every pitch has a kick in it, not just the second.

Never seen so many climbers in the Pass for years. Ynys too was bursting. You can’t say the club isn’t active.

Those orange trousers, despite being “off the Calpe market”, may well be the most photogenic clothing to make an appearance on the blog ever! You must get me some next time you are in Spain… Hmm, wait, on second thoughts they might clash with my orange top! Kidding aside, great picture on Brant!

Thanks, Kats

Well, I narrowly missed having some pictures published in ‘Classic Rock’ years ago because Ken said the climbers looked too dull and didn’t stand out Since then, I’ve always looked for pictures where the climber stands out Hence, I try to wear bright stuff myself and have now ‘employed’ a professional photoghrapher/artist as a photographer

The trousers are £3 each on Calpe market and come in many bright colours . But, as paul said, pity they have the label ‘Mabel’ on them Unfortunately, their lifetime is only a few months since vikki destroys them when the slightest hole appears in the rear which is not very long in my case
