So here we are again, with the 7th instalment of my 52 part series.
It was a busy week, and a busier weekend. We had a couple of days off, and spent one of them catching up on blogs and adventure plans, and another day bouldering at our current favourite indoor venue, The Climbing Station in Loughborough. The weekend was spent driving hundreds of miles up north, down south, there and back again.
On with the show...

Pin Snot...for being my favourite daughter of all the one I've got...for being a beautiful person, and continually making me proud...for being creative and warm and funny and gorgeous, all at once.
Weekly Present
A friend, Matt was staying with us for a few days to recuperate after a time in hospital. Of course, it's quite cold round our house, so I went to find something for Matt to wear. I came across a hoody I used to love...it's black, with Orange County Choppers design's on the front and back...very metal, and suited Matt down to the ground. He only wears black, and he likes Rammstein (ffs)...so I was very happy to give it to him.
More next week!

Week 6 - Work, Visit, Climb
So here we are again, with the 6th instalment of my 52 part series.
It was another very busy week with work, and poorly friends...although we climbed several times again, including a mammoth bouldering session where we climbed 75 problems in under 3 hours. I also got in an inaugural jam with Jools, which was great fun.
On with the show...
Weekly Summary
Work, hospital, work, climb, hospital, jam, climb!
Weekly Thanks and Praise
Mum - for always supporting me, whichever random path I've veered off onto...and for being such an influential role model, with her generosity of spirit, which is a lesson for us all.
Weekly Present
I overheard a conversation about a failed hard drive, which had contained a large number of video's which weren't backed up. Before I could catch myself, I'd offered to attempt to retrieve the data - I've done this kind of thing a number of times over the years, and have the relevant software. It's a long winded and challenging task, characterised by deep scans of the raw data on a disc, which take 10 hours a time, and have to be run repeatedly. I've got some of the data back at least, despite the drive being pretty well knackered.
You're welcome, TC!
More next week (or maybe later, as I'm so far behind with this)...
