Did anyone see Jack Osbourne’s Adrenalin Junkie on ITV2 last night?
El Potrero Chico looked almost as good as it did in Terry’s 
post from when he visited last year. But in particular, check out the picture of Jungle Wall (I think Space Boyz may even be the same route) in Terry’s post, it’s where Jack and his crew showed us all how crap they are at climbing! Loved the dramatic commentary that highlighted Jack as an “experienced climber” – although he didn’t lead any of the climbing, not even the easy introduction on day 1. But credit where it’s due, at least he did free climb the crux pitch (with a top rope) whereas Craig David had to use a fixed rope for aid.
Anyway, I thought it was cool 
that Terry had been there already, and thought that this alone was worth pointing out. 
We must go there next year.

Hey Pete, Cool
Everett and Doug Nelson are in El Potrero as we speak. I’d have been with them too, had the Australia trip not been coming up. I have lovely memories of that place 
of chico’s bar 
of Dane Bass and his dog, Doof 
of Luis who ran the campsite 
I think I told some of you that the production company (Ginger TV) got in touch, since I had the only guide books in England (I’d bought a job lot off Dane Bass). Unfortunately, I’d just passed them on to Steve
Yeah – another trip organised already.
Can’t wait.
Luckily I’ve got lots of other trips between now and then to keep me well occupied.
when when when??????????????????????????
When she retires
I can’t retire! I ned the money to pay for all my holidays.
Reckon we need to get out to Mexico this time next year. Seems to be the best weather.
I will be satisfied with Morocco.
Speaking of adrenaline junkie apprantley Jack wasn’t sufficiently an adrenaline junkie to do Swildons sump 1… Pah.
Can’t remember if I’ve been down Swildon’s or not. My memory seems to be fading; I remember having to divert a stream at the entrance and then rushing to get down the entrance pitch before the water overflowed onto our heads, or something similarly crazy. Was that Swildon’s?
Anyway, what’s Swildon’s like? And what did little fat Jackie Wackie get scarred off?
