August Update

Well, the rubbish weather continued this month for sure! I was so glad to have my own climbing wall to train on, what with all the wet weather, but am starting to get a little stir crazy now. I mean, what's the point of training for climbing, when you can't actually get outside and do any real climbing? I was really hoping to get to Lulworth Cove this month to sample some of the spectacular looking DWS routes over there, but so far this has yet to be. Most of my weekends off have coincided with very wet and unfavourable conditions, which has been a major spanner in the works on that one. However, all was not that bad. Berry Head opened to climbers again on the 1st, and despite the mostly dire weather, I did manage over half a dozen quality DWS sessions on some of the rare sunny days we had this month, fitting them in either side of morning or afternoon work. It was great to get back on my favourite routes again and deep water solo in the sunshine. Such pure freedom and good feelings! :) 
Fingers crossed that we get better weather in September and I finally get to go to Lulworth!?!
