The sun can do beautiful things.

The extra is from yesterday's climbing with Skyline, I'm not in it though.  We'd opted for sport climbing because some of us, including me, needed to practise the clipping on and re-threading that you have to do at the top of a sport route, so I had Andy looking down from the top checking what I was doing and getting me to talk it through to him.  I think I'm clear.

I didn't enjoy the actual climbing much.  I waded in straight away with leading my first sports route and found it really horrible, so maybe I should have seconded a couple of routes first to get used again to how vertical quarries are.  I've decided that I'm not really a fan of sports climbing, but everyone tells me that it's much nicer in Spain so I hope they're right :-)

Edit: I've just found out that I've completed six years' worth of blips, although it's taken me since December 2008 to do it.  Many thanks to everyone who comments on my journal, whether you're a regular or just popping in, it's much appreciated!
