Spent the weekend up at Freycinet with Nick, getting punished severely for lack of climbing fitness, and for poor offwidth technique! Not many climbing shots - too busy belaying Nick and bleeding to capture any, but a few bits of wildlife, scenery and portraits of a sort in the album to the right...a couple of the better ones also appear on www.dreapadoir.com.

It was very strange to be up there without Gill, but Nick was a laugh as always - target frisbee in the dark, with beer bottles worth 20 points, was a particular lowlight! Not much good for snuggling up to in the tent though...

 

Gill comes back from Nepal on the weekend - I can't wait!

 
So I was pretty excited to check the stats for www.dreapadoir.com which I have reproduced above. I am also coming high up in Google, which is cool!

I am expecting one of these little beauties to arrive this week to replace my Scale 30, which met an ignominious end atop the Kippax's car. It is the new Scott Genius 40...I can't wait!
