Dave gives his body to a good cause for a few hours.
After two days of hard gardening it was time to do some hard climbing to justify calling ourselves climbers! But with a poor holiday forecast (thundery showers!), where to go?
It was our turn to pay back some of the sweat Dave had suffered digging the ground for our patio a couple of years ago; today we helped lift the turf where the new green house is due to rise from the ground next week. It was hard work...
After the wonderful dinner and wine last night we felt a little tired this morning and so we headed up to Quayfoot Buttress, Borrowdale for a short approach to a not too long climb...

A very tough choice of venue today.
Lots of climbers, fickle weather, and tired legs...
We set out for Borrowdale today, wanting a short walk-in after a week that had seen us on Ben Nevis and Pavey Ark...
One of my favourite paces to climb is Pavey Ark...
After some hectic carpet laying, to make Paul's bedroom habitable for his stay with us over the Easter Bank Holiday, we headed out to see just how good some of the bouldering in Kentmere is...
