…and roasting it in the middle. Probably best describes my life
this week. I have just handed in, well emailed the final few tweaks
(1.30am). It will be finalised on friday, when I have to go into the
office and sign off the final proof. This will ensure that it makes its
1st September deadline. On [...]

August. This course is ideal if you are planning a trip to go big wall

I have decided to offer a “How to Big Wall Course” over the
weekend of 15th & 16th August 2010. I guess it is the last date that

Well I have been busy trying to finish off a new website for my
coaching and instructing website, Snowdonia Mountain Guides. Moving it
to a joomla based website. Hopefully it is more user friendly than this
blog and the previous site that was made in wordpress. My plan is to
slowly move the better articles [...]

The problem has been that I have around 13000 images that I need to sift
through in order to find the images that I want. It [...]

cash for a new MacBook Pro. Ouch, it really hurt paying for, it, as I
can now only afford realistically to go on holiday for two weeks. Unless
work picks up, but seeing as I have heard of no work instructing [...]

friends on the trail, I’ll do a little more personal take on the
Festival. The short version… Squamish, in good weather, with good
people might be [...]
Well its continuing to lash it down, which is an arse, after all having
so much time on my hands it would be nice to get out climbing. However I
have been stuck in doors twiddling my thumbs, trying not to get too
bored. I might take up knitting to while away the hours, seeing [...]
Well I spent this morning running round Ogwen with Llion, looking at the
various descent off the Milestone and Idwal Slabs. we of course soloed a
