The Respected Mountaineer

Oh my, it's been a while. Anyway...

Last Tuesday, James and I delivered our lecture on ice climbing in Norway to the Alpine Club.  Quite prestigious!  It went really well, with much applause, loads of questions, and about 40 attendees (about 11 of whom we brought).  I put a post on UKC and one guy came all the way from Lincolnshire - 100 miles on the train!  Mind you, if I had realised quite how much work it was going to be, I may have declined - the first cut ran to about 80mins. And to think I was worried about not having enough to say.

Well, not really, but almost.  Life is way to busy to be blogging but I couldn't let this moment pass by without being recorded:

Oooof! I took the hit. Fully fished out.

UKC Article

Two articles published in as many weeks!  Quite the prolific author, I am.

...Off the back of which, we have been asked to give a lecture at the Alpine Club.  For an hour!

A Risky Business

Never mix business with pleasure they say, but here is an article (well, sort of) that I wrote for work about managing risks in a climbing context.  The thought process has much more in common with project management risks and issues than you'd expect.

Plus, now I am famous (well, sort of).
