I don't have the guide book in front of me, but from memory semantics uses the same nice finger crack start as for Mo Money. ie, the start pictured here. But then, semantics heads left of the roof. Heading right of the roof is Mo Money, grade 25. Ask Pat about this one, very scary! I think bridging off the back wall, deep within the chimney, is another route entirely, the name of which escapes me at the moment.

The 2 bolts, very short slabby thing on the right was probably "Mercy" 6m, grade 17. Yes the crux is the first two moves, then it's easy after that. Actually quite a nice little climb, despite how tiny it is.

Just top rope Old Dogs with a big static rope and save yourself the scary onsight lead. It's not something I've lead, so I can't really comment. I've only seconded it.
