Heh heh, welcome aboard Col. As I understand it, bouldering is this thing where people climb without ropes, often far too high not to have a rope, with the protection of an inflated crisp packet to protect them should they fall.
Looks like good choice of topics. I'll be back shortly to check Crags section as I am leaving my local rocks for yorkshire gritstone in the next couple of months... exciting stuff :)
@liaml89 Sounds good. Let's hope we get some decent weather. If it's crap do you wanna hit The Foundry for some routes or Climbing Works for a spot O bouldering?
