thanks if anyone can clear this up it's you - it's described as this at the moment:

Rent A Doddle 20m 26
Great moves if you can do any of them. Mikl describes this as ‘A Teflon Slippery Dip’ and now feels that it could be as hard as grade 30. This starts at the deep cleft 2m right of Fiction. Up the cleft to the top of the crack. Slip up the groove above, past the remnants of those horrible smashies (have bolts replaced them yet?). Mike Law.

“The last great line at Ben Cairn, ( ... ) I brushed it 4yrs ago at the time of the Musk, Hashish and Blood attempts and eventual hoax.” Greg Pritchard.

Rum, Sodomy And The Lash ?m 24
Start: Up Skating Away till on the slab above the crack. Go left to the bolt on Musk, Hashish And Blood, then further left across an obvious traverse line originally clipping the ‘fixed’ (no longer present - see above) pro on Rent A Doddle and Fiction. Finish up Gnippils. Ian Anger. March 1988

Musk, Hashish And Blood 22m 21
A harder version of Skating Away. Starts as for Skating Away. Up Skating Away’s initial crack until on the slab. Move left and clip the BR. Thin moves upward lead to easier climbing. Andrew Black, Jill Anderson. 8.1.85
