Being Belayed by a Stranger 8-Oct-2005 At 7:41:15 PM kerroxapithecus

Yeah PK this forum seems to have some of people who know each other. Other forums seem to have more travellers who post saying they want to find people to climb with and then others come on and give phone numbers. Prob best for girls to give email addy and meet in company with others. that's my advice..... you (the royal you) can stick it in the loo if you want.

Yes that means a lot. Conversely it feels really bad when you don't trust and it's not worth climbing at all. I've felt the difference and it's massive.

Thanks for the kind gesture but don't bother PK I was up all night last night happily knitting away (being the old, haggard, sensible, cautious, person I am).....nearly got to the end but was afraid the knitting needles might poke me in the eye so I stopped. Went to a qualified doctor today to get a big pill full of chill out courage so should be ok to finish it tonight. lol
