I appreciate your honest and candid response.

I probably won't. The whole thing started with an anti-gay slur. But no-one (apart from you) has responded directly to the only gay climber - ie. me - who has bothered to respond!

I don't really understand that. But at least the whole issue has had a good airing.

Cheers,
