Retail and climbing therapy - Northumberland

Friday
Flier from work = in John Lewis, Newcastle for 17:00 to ogle (but not purchase!) home furnishings!

Lovely dinner at Wagamama's.
Wild camp in the van near Once Brewed.


Heavy rain overnight.

Saturday
Contemplated and committed to
Plan A - climb at Crag Lough. 



Wall and Crack (Diff)




Spuggie's Gully (VDiff**)

Jezebel (Diff***)




Rock was great. Dried off enough, despite being north facing. Drying rock shoes enough to make them stick was a challenge though!

The climbing there is very steep but Charlie loved her 3 leads and was cool, calm and collected throughout, despite being greeted by 2 tiny frogs on a hand hold/gear placement on Jezebel!

Returned to Richmond Saturday evening, via IKEA for further perusal!

Sunday
Lovely run before breakfast to suss some good blackberry spots for afternoon foraging!
