Okay, let’s make this thread a REGISTER YOUR INTEREST affair and instead of an Aidfest we will publish the dates (here) of our ‘refinery’ sessions for others to include themselves if they wish to.

... Let’s see if the aid game still has life left in it!

Random thoughts off the top of my head. As indicated earlier, there’s likely going to be two sessions. If VCC is occupying Buffalo around then, my preference is to make the aid thing on another weekend due it’d no longer be low key, and besides I still free climb too so may wander up for part of it.
Re down Castlemaine way - that’s a good excuse for me to get out on another motorcycle ride.
;-)

>>M9, TimP, PeterW - best of luck on your Ozy trip; are you going to use Tims ledge ?

I’m using my Black Diamond (single) portaledge.

>>Those not quite competent probably spend even less time (on-wall)
... unless they have plenty of time and dogged determination to get up their chosen route!
