wow - amazing stories!! here's a few from me, all positive, even the one negative one.

becoming a father has definitely been a huge influence on climbing - firstly, time on the rock is so much more valuable, I no longer care *what* I'm climbing, just happy to get out and really looking forward to the time we're all able to go together. Its enlightening, and enlivening.

having a scary, scary scary experience exploring a new area with David Cameron some years ago, really put the wind up me, basically the turning point from being a c--ky, relatively inexperienced climber to a climber somewhat more mature outlook. Thanks David, it really was a turning point.

moving to tasmania for 5 years - I can climb cracks now! A whole new world is open...

moving back to victoria - I only have to climb cracks if I want to :-)

Cheers everyone, great thread, great reading.
