Blog - September 2009

We're a good way through setting a new purple circuit (although everyone calls the holds pink!)- it is a replacement for the orange/green circuit, with problems in the V3-V5 range. This time, though, we have bought lots of screw-ons for the problems to reduce the reach element in the problems.

The circuit is to keep people interested until we reset the entire wall- this is now less that a week away- 28th September is the planned day.

Stone Country, the Glasgow-based publishing company, have recently added to their titles with a smart selected guide to Fontainebleau. This has photos and a tick box for every problem covered, together with very clear maps which should prevent even the most incompetent getting lost.
We have several of these new guides in stock for anyone planning their next Font trip.

We're having a 6-months opening party on Friday evening, 18th September. Barbecue (weather permitting), drinks and to kill two birds with one stone, we'll hold the prizegiving for the aggregate and any climb-off if needed in the event of a tie.  All invited, we hope to see you there!
