i lived with this freak who ate rocks for breakfast, lunch and dinner and was so intrigued by his limitless enthusiasm that i had to find out what all the fuss was about...so...it was off to centurion walls for some serious sandbagging. from then on i followed this guy to all these far out places in the grampians that no-one ever goes to and i'd watch him bolt these routes that were too hard for me to even look at...thats when i realised i was just a belay bitch. but for me i was just happy to get outdoors. it was lucky that we both got into alpine mountaineering at the same time and thats where i'm happiest! nowadays i've taken things a bit more serious and i'm actually training with the sole purpose of one day being able to sandbag this "freak" (you know who you are and i know you'll be reading this and i want you to know that i'll get you back!!).
