routes on Annapurna

I am a bit confused about how climbers map routes up snowy mountains. An article on MountEverest.net shouts about how a new route has been found on Annapurna in the Himalayas (the picture on the right shows the classic route as a red dotted line and the new route in green. I think the photo on the left just shows old ropes some careless climbers left behind). Surely there must be a million different routes you could take, just by taking a side step. I wonder what the rules are.

monkey

While in Tom Smith’s car the other day he told me many interesting things one of which was…

it was last tuesday, i had the afternoon off. i was rolling down winterstoke
road on my (broken) bike towards halfords, and i was just by the alphabet
zoo (big nursery) when a man (i assume) in a really poor monkey outfit ran
across my path to do monkey-type actions towards the stationary traffic.

due to the lack of all-round vision afforded by the oversize head, he ran
into my path, casuing me to shout out ‘oi, watch it monkey!’

fondue

Filed under: — sarah @ 9:08 am

I lost my fondue (cheese) virginity last night and I kind of wish i’d kept it. Not quite sure I can see the point and I can still taste it, along with my alcohol breath….ew. When very drunk and hilarious last night I nearly commented on someones blog with the funniest comment ever written! haha but I decided to do a little experiment and wrote it on some paper and this morning read the most random, unfunny thing ever. Let that be a lesson.
