Photo courtesy of Joe Beaumont Behind the Lines (HVS 5a 33m) at Hodge Close Quarry is another climb that I seconded some time ago and have wanted to lead ever since. Being only my third ever 5a lead (the first was Endurance and the second kick Off) I was a little bit psyched but determined to climb well. Dan from the Priestly Centre was again my climbing companion. We parked the car and looked over at the route which was being climbed by someone (who turned out to be Joe Beaumont), with what...

Every time I’m in the Coniston area I find myself gazing up at Dow Crag. Having seconded Murray’s Route a few years ago I’ve kept promising myself that I’d return to lead it; but a combination of poor weather, poor planning and a long walk in have kept me away. Read Full Story

Warmer weather is here and tomorrow I’m off for a days climbing on Dow Crag but first here’s a brief update on the outdoor climbing that I’ve done so far this year. Whitestones - seconded Cracked Wall (HS) and Moose (HS), all very straightforward. Stonestar - led a climb that had previously sandbagged me, but still struggled to find the hidden hold on Stonestar Groove (HS). Tilberthwaite Quarry - failed to top rope Big Tree Corner (E1) six weeks ago. Returned last night wit... Read Full Story

We don’t often highlight upcoming events on Discover The Lake District but make an exception for the forthcoming unveiling of the new Laurel and Hardy statue sculpted by Graham Ibbeson. Mr Ibbeson seeems to have carved out a career for himself producing sculptures of deceased comedians, having previously immortalised Eric Morecambe in Morecambe, Benny Hill in Southampton and Les Dawson in Lytham St Annes.

One thing that I always do BEFORE I do business with anybody is initiate some form of low level contact. Maybe it’s via email requesting more information, perhaps it’s a phone call to ask a question, but whatever the contact method, the response (or often lack of response) helps me judge that company. If you’d like to chat to me about anything related to web design, building websites and more importantly, getting your online efforts to produce a profit, just email me at supp... Read Full Story

Under Harry Redknapp Portsmouth football team reached heights beyond the levels that anyone would have thought possible, given the comparatively star free squad that he had to work with. Astute poaching by Spurs meant that Harry was on his bike, leaving his club in the charge of Tony Adams, one time Arsenal and England captain. Adams lasted a matter of months in the job, unable to motivate his team to the levels that his predecessor had. So it is with pubs Running a pub these days is hard wo... Read Full Story

There were over 4,500 mortgage schemes to choose from, offered by over 200 lenders - or more accurately around 100 lenders, each with multiple identities. Since the credit crunch hit the UK these numbers have reduced by over 50%. So how do you choose the best mortgage deal for you and your particular circumstances?. How can you compare a 2 year tracker, with a 2 year discount, a 2 year fixed rate and a 2 year capped rate, if the fees charged are different? What if one of the deals offers a fr... Read Full Story
