This meet was attended by 9 members of the club: Graham D, Pete A, Tom E, Pete C, Emma M, Rob T, Johan P, Charles M, Kirill S.

Saturday was a typical Welsh summer day of shower dodging, but largely successful for all teams.
GD, PC and EM got started on the Main Wall but had to retreat after getting rained on. Later went to Tremadog in hope of finding drier conditions.
RT and TE did Ribstone Crack at Carreg Wastad then Cristmas Curry at Tremadog.
CM and JP did Shadow Wall at Carreg Wastad then Grim Wall Direct and One Step in the Clouds at Tremadog.
PA and KS did The Grooves at Cyrn Las and Crackstone Rib at Carreg Wastad.

Sunday morning’s weather in the Pass looked hopeless, so after a leisurely sit in at Pete’s Eats and some gear shopping, we packed our wet tents and went elsewhere. PA, KS, CM, GD and JP to Tremadog and the rest to Llandudno. Tremadog turned out to be dry as it’s often the case with showers passing very near but just missing it. PA, KS and CM climbed Meshach and Merlin Direct while GD and JP did an easy work of The Fang and The Plum.
TE, RT, EM and PC had a fun day on the beach in Llandudno, with some bouldering and caving(!) thrown in.

In the evening everyone got together for a meal at a well known balti house in Walsall where among other things two family sized naans were easily consumed.
