Up down went she - ah but such fun be this. After all it's been so long. Oh and I am getting good at placing protection too! But then again surely she'd realise it's usually on the outside or is this a new way?

Now up went I; and oh dear these jugs were always out of reach, and so many nuts I tried - now I know size is im

Dear all,

It is with great sadness that I have to report the death of Peter Thorogood on Tuesday 25th August at about mid day while descending the Inner Rottal Ridge of the Jungfrau (details back page).

I climbed with Peter a few times over the past year and found him to be quietly spoken, interesting and fine company to be with.  A number of you will remember he presented at last years slide show. I have only known him a short time but will miss him. 

The Funeral will be held at 3.30pm at Harwood Park Crematorium, Stevenage,  followed by tea for those attending at Hitchin Priory at 4.30pm (approx) on Friday 11th September. 

His wife Lynne has said that anyone who would like to attend is very welcome.

Our thoughts go out to Lynne and their two sons at this time.

We are having  a collection for the Snowdonia Appeal in memory of Peter. Please send your donations to Myself, Albert or Jane, by 16th October. 

He will be missed by all who knew him

portant!! Jason he idd pop into view  - help help or was it shit shit I am about to.. Oh no thought I with a high pitched whimper  my nuts can't hold out much longer! So chip-chip-chippie went I...

Now Jas' down I am going to lump you one; when/If I get up - but me thinks perhaps not it's too late for you.

But be the moral of this - on the mantle be Jas' safe and secure, but only just, and still a way to go - all alone - now up did climb 'Golum'. The selfish one did climb up (oh oh did I get my climbs in today!) - well let's hope his fucking friends let him down!! and be glad he's not HMC!! and last but not least let's applaud Jason on his epic success' on less than a weeks climbing well done!!

Now Phil went from side to side and even when not climbing too! Pete did you really feel so safe?
