Almost having a winter after all

It must be winter again because the rain has gotten colder. And more continuous. But we've managed to get out for a few days every afternoon over the Easter break: checked out a few lines on the Hornby Crags below te Marine Drive on Pen Trwyn, mostly sports climbs but also a fun adventure on a trad line called "The Enemy" with my son Sion, completed just before the drizzle returned. Today (Easter Monday) took more perseverance though as the rain persisted most of the day and a cold breeze sprang up. Dave Evans introduced me to the delights of bouldering in Parisellas Cave, something I've successfully hitherto avoided. I managed to get both feet off the ground so it was more successful than anticipated.We grabbed 3 routes before the rain returned; long enough also to check out Lower Pen Trwyn where, not surpsisingly, everything was gopping wet.
