On my birthday the 26th Marianne gave me a very nice present.
A flight to Edinburgh to join the first round of the STS (Scottish toolling series) .
A great comp for everyone from beginners to worldcup climbers.
After 15 qualification routes which I flashed all(150 points) just like Steve Johnstone, Marianne and Malcolm followed with 147 points. So really interesting finals. i won the comp after clipping the last draw of the route…
After the comp there was a good pub session.. including skiing and some shots..
Next day was a slow start but i was really happy to climb Fast and Furious in the 2nd go. half way a hold was broken. So I popped the first time. Marianne hates that hold now..
After my ascent the drinks from the night before took over :( .
