Hey Paulie,
If you're heading back to Rjukan you should consider going here; http://www.bogong.com.au/html/norway.html
These photos were taken in the Setesdal valley, same lattitude as Rjukan but further west. No tourists, no other climbers (so the routes aren't all chewed out and there are no queues at the bottom.), cabins are cheaper, 116 recorded routes so far and plenty of unclimbed plums left to pluck. No 'sport' style routes and a bit more walking involved but lots of long routes with great veiws. I can supply you with a word document guidebook that includes all the routes done so far, plus heaps of photos. PM me if you want more info.

Just to keep the thread on track, I prefer Charlet Petzl screws, made from harder steel than BD;s so hold onto their sharpness better, plus hanger is better designed, allowing you to clip in before it's been run all the way in. Rack better than the Grivels.
