  • The Club Hut with added Caption Competition

    I was at a climbing club meet at the weekend in the Bowderstone Hut, next to the Bowderstone in Borrowdale. There was a bit of a free-for all for the cam with the 7-14 mounted, so none of these were taken by me! It gives an idea of life in a salubrious climbing hut.

    Entertaining the troops, none of whom are interested.

    Salubrious indeed! Most huts I have used don't even have plaster on the walls let alone smoke detectors, emergency lighting and fire extinguishers!

      Hi -

        Aaah! Two tins and a bottle of Buckfast.. I'll be awa' home in the Landrover if someone could pick up me keys for me...


        PS, Come back Rab C, the world needs you more than ever...
        Look, I'm an old man. I shouldn't be expected to put up with this.

                and guess who took the photos?


                And we have even had 25 sit down for Christmas dinner.
                A bit tight but a few beers, whiskies, wines, etc. soon makes it comfortable.

                    This must be a Scottish thing. I tagged along to an SMC meet in Langdale and the meet organiser supplied a 3 course meal with wine. Some of 'em even dressed for dinner I wore the old denins & tattered fleece .

                      This hut sounds like the ideal venue for an E-System User Group meet!
