Hi Guys & Girls
Well it looks like another damp weekend in the UK,if any of you have seen the news most of the country is underwater or soon will be!Thinking of selling my cam collection on ebay and buying a canadian canoe.Only joking though i do fancy a canoe for none climbing days.
To think I went to Spain in Feb to get in shape for a hard summers climbing now summer is here its wet.
