Dali,

youre spot on there mate... pre 96, when they had the titles here (gym now long gone) i had gone up to bachelors to have a play and thought it all too hard and not worth it in the long term due to its size. But after the like of Klem came to town the palce was jumping with activity and you almost had to take a number at times. the energy was fantastic.

After a few yrs in melb and o/s i came back to teh pad to find once again it had become a quite place, but i was (am) keen to takle problems i never though could be done...its a real buzz.

the same happened in the gramps with Fred and his mates again making what others may look at as being impossible as being doable (well sort of i guess, if your sharik or similar) but the point is that others come in and create the interest, make others aware of what can be done.

i'm not too sure on the "routes" there though!

cheers
