Friday glee would not climb granite wearing a bikini

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: BBC Radio's Give Me Space Below My Feet, an experiment blending an interview with Gwen Moffat, new poetry and binaural sound (listen with headphones) to recreate the atmosphere of a climb in Langdale.

(Note: contains a description by Moffat of finding a child's body while doing rescue work as a mountain guide.)
