Apologies to Uncle Ken who I missed seeing at the crag through being a sluggard and not getting up early enough and many thanks to everybody else who turned up on such a fine day. The sun shone, the rock was lovely and warm and there was plenty of good company. Because of the sheer numbers attending, the day became as much about socialising as climbing, and it was wonderful to see so many friends, old and new. Despite this there was plenty of climbing done with many of the classic routes surmounted by several parties throughout the day. I~ sorry, but it was an impossible task to try and keep a record of what everyone was doing to give a more detailed report. I just hope that everybody enjoyed the day as much as I did

PS:

  • Thanks Dave for catching Heather. She still says that your her hero!

  • I reluctantly give a tick for attendance to Rob and Chris for walking across the bottom of the crag on their way to Gardoms.

  • I hear that Roger is taking part in the early trials for a new sport of Baby Rolling. Could this catch on in time for the Olympic Games 2004!

  • I'm sorry Sheena and Neville, turning up at the Whalley Bridge café on the way back from another crag does not constitute attending the meet!

  • Many thanks to young William for the tips on how to climb. I'm sorry the adults were such a disappointment to you and I'm sure that they will do better next time!
