Wintour's

Back at Wintour's Leap last night. A bit surreal given the unfolding events in the capital. Did Mosquito Bite (E1 4c, 5b) which was nice. Had a beer later with Paul who lives near by. He's off to Cloggy this weekend the lucky bugger. Weather looks set to be favourable, too. We're off to Sweden tomorrow morning for a week of doing not very much with the extended family. No climbing, but at least there's a campus board where we're heading :)

SimonA reported on the 'wormers' mailing list that he'd been in contact with all London wormers and that they are OK. Fortunately, Chris and Nana were out of the city for Nana's sister's wedding in Cornwall. Nana works right in the thick of it. 37 confirmed dead, expected to rise. UK has long experience with bombs in its cities, and will no doubt bounce back, undeterred. However, one cannot help but think that a new, frightening era has dawned if it is true that suicide bombers are operating on UK soil.
