Hi Ally

I think i was talking to you on climbing.ie. I'd be up for some climbing in the Mournes, I couldn't lead anything just second.

Allyc · « **Reply #5 on:** April 04, 2011 »

Hi alan, yea definally be up for that any sunday suits me, let me no when it suits yas, looking forward to it, its great to see the summer coming, been a long winter!

hi MG1 yea i noticed the name, this seems to be a great site, climbing.ie great site to, i cant lead either, i walk to the top of the route,throw the rope over and climb up, i will learn to lead when im a better climber, im a beginner myself, if thats all ok with ya we can go some saturday,if it suits you, if weathers good, do ya have harness and shoes?

MG1 · « **Reply #6 on:** April 04, 2011 »

Yeah mate have a harness and shoes. I've all needed for seconding.

I've been itching to get out climbing for ages. Bouldering in the o-zones just not the same.

Is it only weekends that suits you?

Allyc · « **Reply #7 on:** April 04, 2011 »

yea just off at week ends maybe i might get a day of during the week but i wouldnt no when, just when im not busy, does the weekends not suit ya? im not very good at climbing mate, i dont have much experience at all, but we can still give it ago .

MG1 · « **Reply #8 on:** April 04, 2011 »

I can get some weekends off. We'll get a date tied down and get out. We could arrange it for a time when another trip is going on. we could get a full day climbing and the next morning.

I'd be up for tagging along sometime. Been climbing indoors for just over 2 months now so still not that great a climber, but I was lucky enough to get to Scotland for some winter stuff which helped show me the ropes for some outdoor stuff, although it was mostly scrambling type stuff but got a bit of experience building anchors, placing protection and that sorta thing and got to lead a few pitches going up the Ledge route on Ben Nevis and Feacall Ridge in the Cairngorms

Allyc · « **Reply #10 on:** April 04, 2011 »

yea MG1 sounds good, let me no a date am free most weekends!!!

hi tim, i go out most saturday morning, if ya read the rest of my posts, top rope is the height of it, more than welcome its just me that goes, any saturday ur free let me no!!!

Tim · « **Reply #11 on:** April 04, 2011 »

Sounds like a plan Ally, I'm free most weekends too but really busy with uni at the minute, should have all my work out of the way in a week or two though. What have you got gearwise? I'm guessing you have your own rope and enough to set up an anchor at the top? I have nothing other than a pair of rock shoes, although im hoping to get a harness and a few screwgates and slings this week, as well as a few quickdraws for leading at the wall in the PEC

Sounds like you've been getting on really well since joining the Mountaineering Club, good going! Winter climbing in Scotland must have been an awesome trip

Allyc · « **Reply #13 on:** April 04, 2011 »

yea tim rope slings few nuts etc enough to set up top rope, dont work to hard!!

ZTO · « **Reply #14 on:** April 04, 2011 »

I'm Tim's climbing buddy, and I'd be up for this too. I have my own harness and rock shoes etc. I'm going on a trad climbing trip to the Peak District on the 17th, which should be pretty awesome

I too have a lot of uni work though, so I'll have to wait a few weeks.
