Running out in Cwm Idwal

Tennis Shoe (polished as)
Lazarus (fun)
Continuation Groove (perplexing as but she yielded)
Grey Rib (very spaced gear on the VS4b 30m pitch & none at all on the VS4a 18m top pitch)
Top pitch of Grey Slab (Grey Rib & Slab Combination). 15m run-out on VS4b - potential for leader to fall past the belay ledge on this route as well.

Kudos to Timmy who fresh from Font hangs 3 doors then jumps in his car and drives 5 1/2 hours to meet us in Ogwen & signs up for a big hill day next morning.

Jenny talked to sleeping bag repair in The Lakes using her own phonetic alphabet, managing to avoid mine an Tim's distractions, ' D for debit, H for Harry, B for Barry, no BARRY..'

Came off the mountain by moonlight, for tea back at the van at midnight.
