Friday glee is not in litigation

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 (and because of how I spent yesterday): here's a repeat link to one of my favourite bits of climbing footage ever, Johnny Dawes demonstrating one-handed (and no-handed) climbing.

Free advertising: his idiosyncratic and brilliant autobiography Full of Myself has just come out, and you can see Niall Grimes talking to him about it here. Review by Ed Douglas here; representative extracts at Footless Crow here.
