I'm mostly indoor climbing too, especially when I haven't much time, 2 places in sheffield are great, climbing works(bouldering) and the edge. Also go into the peak district, stannage edge, never mountaineering tho...

Hi Guys,
More of a consultant these days (i.e. talk about it) 8-)

Stay in Perth and so short hop to many good walks and climbs in the Highlands (can still see snow tops from my house!)
In my time climbed all on Skye (including Inaccessible Piniccle) the Anoch Eagh Ridge in Glencoe (scary) and also a couple of summits of Mont Blanc in Chamniox. Amongst a host of other Scottish mountains (plus 2 highest in Engerland)

Heading for Lake district in late June so may manage a wee hill or two! :mrgreen:
