And my foot seems to work again, wandering round the Pentlands in the dark appears to have done it some good - of course, I will be an even worse climber than ever now, but still. You never forget how to belay... :roll:

Traprain Law looks interesting, have you got a guidebook that covers it? There's some info on scotclimb.org, just highlights and directions.

The other thing, when are you both free?

I'm also up for lots and lots of summer climbering. I think that puts us over the three big uns limit. Shall we discuss it in the pub tonight?

Sunday doesn't look much better than Saterday, which will be wet. My preference would be Friday, but lets see how the forecast developes.

Having said all that, it looks like it might be better to go north on sunday.

Anyone interested this weekend? I quite fancy a trip to Northumberland, and for that Saturday looks better than Sunday weatherwise. Am happy to go anywhere dry though. Anyone else?

I'm interested, let's climb. Do you have a car? Otherwise there is some stuff I want to do in the Ratho quarry.

I have a car. Right now it looks like it is going to be raining everywhere this weekend :(
If the forecast changes and somewhere looks dry I'd still like to do something though.
