dunno how... people expect u to get better at things when they don't give u the chance to practise so that u can... :evil:
nope i can drive...i'm just letting off steam cos i'm fed up.... i tried to delete the thread but it wudn't let me!!! i need to b a better climber & i didn't get on a course that i needed to get on cos it was left too late but he's working next sun so he can't take me climbing but i was twisted at earlier this week that he needs to do something challenging which he can't do with me cos i ain't good enuff...what does he expect i've only been 3 times!! sorry i'm letting off steam cos now not only have i found out that i can't do this course but he's working so can't take me to the wall so i can at least do more stuff....
I used to be an MSI (military ski instructor) in the forces, we used to teach people how to climb. You go to Eldon ?
i've been going to newton accliffe (sp)!!! i've onyl got the time to go on a weekend (1 week only on a sun & the other i can only go sat afternoon & on a sun) it's just annoying to me cos i know how much he wants me to be able to climb but then i ain't getting the chance to get any better!!!
no good that hun, I have let it slide since I left. It's good fun, stick at it. Dunno how your gonna get round learning though, but take care it's a dangerous passtime.
i'm just frustrated cos i am refusing to try climbing outdorrs until i have mastered & feel very confident indoors, cos i know if i got outside & i scare myself i won't do it again...in or outdoors.... i know...that's why i'm so frustrated bout not getting on the course as well.....it would've taught me everything inc being able to do stuff outdoors which wud've made it a bit easier for me but going 3 times in 6 mths isn't any good imo specially when i'm suposed to be learning to do it & after may i ain't going to really have any1 to take me as Ken's back down in London after that..
a wall is really different to being outside though - and a lot more boring imo.. i used to do a lot before i came to uni (forced kicking and screaming around derbyshire by my brother) but i struggled as i got older cos my feet where to big :spangled: and im just a lazy fuck... fact.. reminds me.. ive still got a pair of boots to get rid off - one thing i dont miss is the state of my feet after a day out... big ouch... good luck!
i know but altho it'll poss b more boring it'll also b harder with things depending on weather etc..... i'm not a fan of heights to start with & don't want to scare myself by going outdoors too early & b4 i think i'm ready....but at this rate i mite b ready 4 a long time!! i think i need the luck, ta!
lol just mess around! theres some crags in the dene you can go on before you do anything to serious.. not sure how good they are tho... we always used to go to wharncliffe in sheffield when i lived down that way really good place to learn on... you need somewhere like this really first... it hard and bloody frustrating at first but it gets easier
i don't want to even just mess around outdoors until i'm confident at climbing indoors...i'm a big girls blouse about heights & don't like being scared by stuff...just don't want to ruin my chances at being able to b a half decent climber by doing something i don't think i'm ready 4 & refusing to do it ever again.... cos i don't think Ken wud b very impressed by that (he asked me to learn to climb!) i only know the basics atm & don't know anything bout putting gear n stuff in...need to know all this b4 i'll go outside...
