Friday glee remembers the '80s
Feb. 26th, 2016 11:22 amThe 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: Louis Parkinson and Henry Heineman in this '80s-themed tribute to dynos, run-and-jump problems, and general ridiculous fucking around at climbing walls.

3. MEC exchanged my I-give-up-on-breaking-these-in Miuras for half a size up, even though they were three months old.
4. I am going ice climbing this weekend (though I'm not sure this is glee or despair).
