Well I have spent the first of two days working on a course that Plas Y Brenin call The Budding Indoor Climber or some such catchy phrase. Meaning that I have been keep away from the killer mountain, and nice and warm indoors. I enjoy working at Plas Y Brenin as working as a freelance instructor you often don’t have time to catch up with other instructors, however the PYB staff room is a greate place to do so over the obligatory tea and cakes (how very civilised!).
Anyway I have a guy on my course that for the life of me I swore I knew when I first saw him. Thinking hard I was trying to ascertain whether he had come on another course at Plas Y Brenin or whether I had run into him elsewhere, which didn’t seem that likely given he was an anesthetist. However it turn out after a great deal of discussion that we were in the same year at the school, where I went to do my A-level. Interestingly I had done my GCSE at a rough school, where I excelled as a star pupil, however when I got sent to the Grammar School, I was the thickest. An academic riches to rags story, that I have never recovered from!
Anyway had a great day, and manage to sneak out and take a few pictures at tea break and lunch time. I really should have brought my tripod to work!
