Tim - glad you got sorted.  PEC is a no-brainer if you are a student.

Lenny, MG - I'm definitely up for some ozone action. My wall friend has been too busy for months. PM me if you guys are going anytime.

QuoteI think Tollymore is just a pay & play centre, oh look, there's a hotrock leaflet on my wall, it says

£5 adult
£3.50 students/unemployed/mci member
£2.50 under 14

instructor available free of charge on tues nights (best phone first to confirm)

I went to the hot rock at http://www.tollymore.com/Climbingwall/whatistheclimbingwall  last tuesday night for my first time on the climbing wall, lovely spot, took 2 of the kids who loved it (even the 6yr old) bit pricey when you are paying for 3 people and having to hire the gear  :'( (£3.50 each) but i don't think there is a time limit (open til 10pm) so not bad value for a few hrs play.

Ian the instuctor was very helpful and fills you full of confidence, once he trains you up you can turn up any time and have a go at the wall. There are 4 of the auto-belay devices so you can climb without a partner (also handy if you don't trust your partner  ::) )

Aye Liam Tollymore is a great place to learn to belay and climb, the staff are friendly and helpful, come along next time we are heading to the crags

Yes I'm well up for it, just wanted to get a go on the wall first, I do some industrial climbing at work but no rope stuff, I do love heights  ;D
