Repeat Prescription

Tuesday 30th August
For the treatment of hypo-climb syndrome
One dose of Woden, once a week for at least three weeks

Dropped M off at Grange and got started.  Repelled off first route by shower, walked up and abbed off to retrieve lower off gear.  Rain stopped so gobbled up a somewhat greasy Wimpey Way (S), followed by Wodens Face Direct, both slightly more than severe in the conditions.  Geared up for third route but rain came down properly so had to abandon.  Back in Keswick 3.30, pick up Mags and away for an under-earned libation at the H&F.
