Yesterday

saw quite a lot of climbing, both the luch time antics at Winterbourne and an evening route at Wintour's Leap, 'African Killer Bee' (VS 4c) led by Sarah. She went through the full spectrum of emotions on this route, ranging from "I hate Wintour's Leap!" to "Really really nice route" when pulling over. It was of course way below her ability (she's really an E1 leader that occasionally manages to convince herself that she can't lead vdiff), but she got a bit thrown by the fact that this route shared a section with 'Mosquito Bite' (E1 5b). Now, the fact that she recently sailed up this route, too, didn't seem to matter. Once she put her head down and got on with it she cruised it effortlessly, as she normally does. Paul was having a rematch with 'Flyover' nearby with Tim, and managed it successfully this time around. I should get on it, too, soon.
