Friday glee knows a thing or two about invisibility
The Friday post of glee is where you get to tell us about your climbing-related happiness this week.
It can be a new achievement or adventure, or just that you climbed and had fun; it can be that your favourite climbing wall is expanding or that you bought new rock shoes or that you found a cool ice-climbing vid on YouTube. No glee is too small -- or too big. Members are encouraged to cheer each other on and share the squee.
N.B. Please feel free to post your glee on any day of the week; the Friday glee is just to get the ball rolling.
To enhance this week's glee, something a little bit different. Dave Bowes, a member of the GB Paraclimbing team and Iceclimbing team, writes about climbing with invisible/hidden disabilities after a traumatic brain injury:
UKC: Behind the Mask: Climbing and Hidden Disability
In this video, he climbs several V8s and talks about life with hidden disabilities. And here he is picking off another V8 at Craig y Longridge.

I'm going climbing tonight. It's been too long since I climbed. EGADS. Must work off some of that holiday food. (grin)

I went climbing for the first time this year this week, and despite 3 weeks off, I wasn't terrible. I even managed to link the 6B route that had eluded a clean ascent last year :-)
