What's there to do when you've promised to go climbing with someone and yet you feel as sick as a dog. Why, there's Tor Gro of course! Beautiful and airy, the climbs here are going to make you feel much better whilst not sapping your strength in any way.

I like the place and so do most people who go there. The climbing's not great, but the place is just pleasant.

So, that's why I went there this evening... I felt terrible, had a slight fever and yet I'd promised to climb with Matt. I'd let Matt down once before and was loathe to do so again.

Matt led 'Marsh Dance' I had the luxury of seconding it. It's going into the new guidebook as E1 5a, I believe, but after recent cleaning, it's no more than HS 4b.

There are a number of lines left to do on these four large slabs!
