Friday, 22 February 2008. As we already had one ginger on the team we thought it only right to invite another! Mild mannered Midlander and British Team hero Ned Feehally has become part of the Slapholds team. Check out his blog here. Monday, 18 February 2008. The Arch Climbing wall. South London has been crying out for a wall and who better than to build one than Fred Stone. Slapholds lent a helping hand by sponsoring the wall and providing them with 90% of their holds. Saturday, 9 February 2008.

It started out as some kind of rehab diary then ended up in a load of piffling nonsense. now it's back to it's ROOTS! With a bit of Trad thrown in for the hell of it). Monday, 9 July 2012. The holiday went ' so well'. I didn't have the inclination to write up its failings, a few months later here it is in note form:.

On our little euro-tour, Nat hit her goal of climbing F7a in Rodellar. TBH I think it was the first she actually tried and it went without any redpointing to speak of. First go was on a toprope at which she failed about 5cm from the belay. Second go, well it was done. Tonights route 'Quality Control' was another vic...

Since returning from the Verdon I'd had little psych to make the effort to get out on the Grit; the one day I bothered I just wasn't interested (and neither was she). Spain came around quickly and afterwards there was little time between the Christmas duties to even think about getting out climbing. Thanks to Rob...

I've refined the crux and now all that remains is to string it all together (this time without getting the rope over my shoulder). I'm on the edge of my seat on this one as the forecast looks as if it'll rob me of victory before I have the chance to fail. And then of course there's Four Door. The Peak Bolt Fund.
