Currently 4 of us flying Manchester to Antalya on 16 Nov and back 24th. Heading for sport climbing at Geyikbayiri. Nice cheap German campsite (Google Josito camping). We are going to use their tents and have them fetch us from airport (all very cheap). Anyone interested give me a shout for more details. PS it’s sport climbing so not essential you have a partner.

So, I went to see if crag was dry at 1pm yesterday. It was and even a couple of guys climbing..however the sky was blackening and the thunder closing in. It arrived as a deluge! Passed through and I clung to the thought that the warm rock might repel the damp…as long as it didn’t rain anymore ….but it did …in bucket loads! Our local brook has come over the bridges (impressive) and even the most optimistic me must concede that Froggatt might be err unclimbable! Underground is probably totally inaccessible…so hey ho, Stockport Climbing wall it will be. I’ll get down about 6pm. See you later (and anyone who decides not to bother, you are excused). Jim

Oh this weather is difficult! The forecast keeps predicting heavy rain…but no rain so far in Chinley area! If we do get the downpours they predict then Froggatt will not happen and in anticipation of just that I had half a plan to offer a caving trip down P8 (Perryfoot area), but Iv’e just walked the dog and the streams are still in full spate from Saturdays weather..so I guess even caving is not advisable…I really don’t want to go to Stockport wall but it could become necessary! I will post again before midday tomorrow and let you know whats happening.
