Happy climbing . . . .

Weeding my photo files and I found these:

Kev would zip up those wee hills in no time.

And Tony would find some Scouse, Manc or Welsh volunteers all eager to do it for him.

Hi,
Don't be fooled.
The welsh distant hills are full of this..... Looks like junipers, unfortunatly when you climb and steel yourself against the usual welsh collecting weather, it's is always,always Gourse.

Of course there is a rattlesnake in everyone of those little caves you see beside the trees. Or a gila monster.

Sod that!! Boots up to your earlobes or C4 and stand well back.

That looks like fun.

I used to do a lot of "freestyle" climbing when I was 18-19. I do not recommend "harness-less and hopeless" climbing to anyone who wishes to live. But, it sure is a lot of fun.

The snakes fear Jim Lewis! And the Gila Monsters accept him.

I'm whistling the songs from Dr Doolittle here.

OK...I'll byte...what's "Gourse"?

Gorse, sorry spelt it wrong...........
Ulex europaeus, gorse, furze or common gorse

When old it can have very twisted and interesting,(from a distance), trunk movement. A vine type of trunk. He it is seen as a weed.
It is full of very sharp needle like spines and small yellow flowers.
It has to my knowledge never been sucessfully use to create a bonsai.

Suppose a grid ref is out the question

Hey Alex. Is a "grid ref" not someone who officiates at an American Football game?



Wonder if there are songs sung at NFL and AFC games enquiring as to the name of the person of dubious parentage and dressed in dark colours. touchdown!

Gotcha Jeremy, you are looking for a Juniper and "...it's always,always Gorse...", of course.

Reminds me of a blind 40s-50s San Fransisco entertainer...pianist, composer, singer...name of Glen Hurlbert, whose theme song was "A Horse, of Course"...his composition of course.
