Summer showers


A busy weekend, with an early morning visit to Tintern Quarry ( parking is limited and I was hoping to beat the expected crowds ) in the end it wasn't too bad, with around 6 teams out, these quarried cliffs do suffer from loose rock and we definitely felt happier with helmets on ! Torrential rain woke me at around 04.00hrs on Sunday and I was half expecting to end up at the climbing wall for the introduction to climbing course, it was quite a surprise to find the rocks at Symonds Yat dry under the tree cover, and we enjoyed some of the classics, including the Longstone Pinnacle. Thanks to Sean & Tracey for dodging the falling rocks and Adam, Simon, Rachael & Lynn for an enjoyable couple of days out - Happy Birthday Lynn
