I suppose it's a good time to point out that Leeds now has TWO yes TWO more climbing walls. They both look really good and what with them both being dedicated bouldering facilities there won't be any ropes or harnesses to lug down there. Just pop your shoes, chalk and a drinky in your bag and off you pop. Don't be afeared if all the problems look sick hard and overhanging. There are some gentle slabs and easy problems too.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;Website for T&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;he Depot - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="border-collapse: separate;  font-family:Georgia;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;http://home.btconnect.com/theclimbingdepot/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;Piccytures of the Depot - http://www.flickr.com/photos/19083292@N00/sets/72157613131432840/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;Website for Citybloc - http://www.citybloc.co.uk/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;If you hadn't heard this already then get out from under your rock!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;Lots of love&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;Will&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8077786639605631889-6185356737417852188?l=www.luumc.co.uk%2Findex.php'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8077786639605631889/posts/default/6185356737417852188'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8077786639605631889/posts/default/6185356737417852188'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.luumc.co.uk/2009/04/new-gear-store-opening-nearby-2-new.html' title='New gear store opening nearby. 2 new climbing walls open in Leeds now!'/><author><name>Will Hunt</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15329906356727360569</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='02701280754994427402'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8077786639605631889.post-3938315642511805032</id><published>2009-04-14T11:29:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2009-04-14T11:30:20.805+01:00</updated><title type='text'>The end is nigh</title><content type='html'>Good morning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope everyones been making the most of the good easter weather,  i seem to keep missing it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, a few reminders.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.

Its a long weekendender and now that the days are nice and long its set to provide some good climbing, just need to keep fingers crossed for the weather! get your work done early so you can get involved!

It was a proper bo weekend! A particular 'big up' to everyone who got in their first leads.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This be the current committees penultimate week (well, term time week). Therefore we need to tie up our ends and this means its pay time if you owe any money or still need to return gear. Duncan assures me that those in dept will be severely punished!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just after the easter holibobs we have the AGM on the wednesday 22nd April. As a quick reminder this will be at the packhorse slightly earlier than normal. The current committee will give a quick summary of the year before we'll elect the new committee. Each person standing can give a short few words and then the club will vote. Any other comments or issues about the club can also be brought up at the meeting. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Positions are.....&lt;br /&gt;president - generally organising, communications&lt;br /&gt;vice-president - presidents bitch, organising lectures&lt;br /&gt;secretary - booking stuff, more organising&lt;br /&gt;treasurer - looking after the money&lt;br /&gt;gear secretary - managing the gear and making sure its all safe &lt;br /&gt;transport secretary - booking minibuses, sorting out drivers&lt;br /&gt;social secretary/ies - being social!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although each committee member has specific roles alot is done as a whole and other issues include general safety, recruiting and training new members, choosing where to go climbing etc etc.&lt;br /&gt;If you want more info on what things entail just let me know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the friday 24th we then have the Annual Diner. Were finalising the venue but its likely to be a 3 course menu of about £14 per head. It'll be the only chance to see the club dressed up smart - were going for a full on skirt and tie affair (not together). We need to do a sign up for this wednesday at the packhorse - more details will follow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just to reitterate about the alpine conville courses - Its an really good course as well as a good social affair, with numerous uni clubs seeming to migrate to the same, controversially sloping campsite (its on a skislope!) Various people from the club will also be out there so its a reet good laugh.

I think it will be a pretty chilled one at the packhorse. Kat will have the new batch of hoodies at the pub so bring your money to collect them. Also remember the T-shirt designs competition which closes at easter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you’re going to the Roaches trip this weekend we’ll be meeting outside the union at 5.30 on Friday evening. If you have a problem with this time please let me know. If you have signed up for the weekend and cannot come please let me know as spaces are pretty tight. If you haven’t paid please pay Duncan £17 at the packhorse on Wednesday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The hut &lt;a href = http://www.geograph.org.uk/photos/65/84/658482_6c9b5da7.jpg&gt;(see a photo here)&lt;/a&gt; is right at the crag so there will be no need for the usual nazi regime getting people up in a morning etc. Highlights include the flushing toilet and kitchen in cave!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Place will be pretty scarce (as in possibly sleeping on top of each other) so if you have one bring a sleeping mat in case you have to sleep on the floor. Also remember your sleeping bag, and food for lunches. We'll provide breakfasts and food on Saturday night (hopefully with some home grown turkey). Try to organise who your climbing with before we get there. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That is all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Si&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8077786639605631889-3160756003319353454?l=www.luumc.co.uk%2Findex.php'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8077786639605631889/posts/default/3160756003319353454'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8077786639605631889/posts/default/3160756003319353454'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.luumc.co.uk/2009/03/hello.html' title='Hello.'/><author><name>LUUMC</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='05697061109055727151'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8077786639605631889.post-5714317306443194905</id><published>2009-03-02T20:01:00.003Z</published><updated>2009-03-03T00:07:46.454Z</updated><title type='text'>This weeks shinanigens</title><content type='html'>Hello all,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Soooo...few main points for this week - Roaches sign up and joint outdoors social.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This weeks social is a joint social for all the outdoor clubs. It should be a hilarious night of 'inter club banter' so get involved. Were gona meet at the Packhorse at 7.30 (We'll then head down to HIFI at 9 where we'll get private entry and will be able to stay in for the normal club night later for free). Tickets are £3.50 and have to be bought from the ARC reception (upstairs in the union) before wednesday. Proceeds go to the Paul Morton Trust fund (Paul was in the canoe club last year, he sadly passed away in novemeber).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Roaches trip (western peak)- 13th to 15th March.&lt;br /&gt;We'll be doing the sign up for the roaches trip at the packhorse before we go down to hifi. The price will be £17 including food, accommodation and transport. Places are slightly more limited than usual as the hut is pretty small - officially it holds 12 (they lie though)! If you cant come down to the angel email or facebook me. If you havn't been before the hut is ideally placed right at the foot of the crag so the potential for maximum climbing his massive. It also means that a cheeky tea break or lie in is also possible! The climbing is mostly single pitch and is good at all grades making it ideal for everybody.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sweet, think thats all for now.&lt;br /&gt;See you on wednesday&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Si&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8077786639605631889-5714317306443194905?l=www.luumc.co.uk%2Findex.php'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8077786639605631889/posts/default/5714317306443194905'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8077786639605631889/posts/default/5714317306443194905'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.luumc.co.uk/2009/03/this-weeks-shinanigens.html' title='This weeks shinanigens'/><author><name>LUUMC</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='05697061109055727151'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8077786639605631889.post-7827589959415257595</id><published>2009-02-24T00:02:00.002Z</published><updated>2009-02-24T00:03:59.441Z</updated><title type='text'>Whats cracking soon...</title><content type='html'>Here’s a quick “whoop whoop” for this weekend....well good.

If you’ve lost anything let me know and ill bring it on Wednesday. Also if you still owe any money for last weekend please bring it to the packhorse. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, here’s a quick rundown of the future events....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4th March – Joint outdoor society’s social at HIFI. Tickets are £3.50 available at the arc. You need to buy them this week apparently, it should be a wicked night.&lt;br /&gt;March at some point, maybe the 7th – Paintballing against the hikers. We need to get into training to combat the Hutton army!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;13th – 15th March – Roaches weekend (western peak district). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;22nd April - AGM. The time to elect the new committee. Positions are President, Vice president, Secretary, Treasurer, Transport sec, Gear sec and Social sec (x2). Come and have a chat if you’re interested and want to know more about each position.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;24th April  - Annual Diner, location TBC. Will be a meal and piss up in leeds to celebrate the end of the year and the election of the new committee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1st – 4th May – Annual diner weekend in the Lakes. I know its work time but get it out the way early!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have decided on dates for the Summer trip to Scotland (2nd – 13th June). The trip will be informal with people sorting out their own transport. The agenda will roughly be Glen Coe for a few days. Then up to Torriden where we will hopefully stay in a hut, and then across to Skye. We will be camping everywhere except Torriden. Plans will be flexible depending on weather and conditions. &lt;br /&gt;As the weather improves we hope to run a couple of day trips but these will be weather dependant so well keep you posted as and when these may happen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here’s another “whoop” for all that excitingness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Si&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8077786639605631889-7827589959415257595?l=www.luumc.co.uk%2Findex.php'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8077786639605631889/posts/default/7827589959415257595'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8077786639605631889/posts/default/7827589959415257595'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.luumc.co.uk/2009/02/whats-cracking-soon.html' title='Whats cracking soon...'/><author><name>LUUMC</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='05697061109055727151'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8077786639605631889.post-2239368012641586010</id><published>2009-02-19T15:37:00.000Z</published><updated>2009-02-19T15:38:05.642Z</updated><title type='text'>Final bits for this weekend</title><content type='html'>Hi, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Very funny night at viva cuba last night, I truely feel horrible today, thanks (mike ur a dangerous man!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, this weekend is shaping up 2 be a brilliant one.

However, the university hut in the duddon valley is reserved for us with Will and Kat of the committee going. You will still be able to borrow gear (as always) and generally have a spiffing weekend but this change from the norm of this year will just mean you will have to be independent and decide what to do for your selves... If you want some suggestions for what to do come have a word with someone in the know at the packhorse on wednesday. But for some pointers, bring a guidebook, borrow some of the various scramble books from the Edward Boyle or a map from Will. For those of you knew to the sport, mountaineering is more than just about rock climbing so this could be an ideal weekend to practice your navigation skills and rope work on scrambles in preperation for our Scotland trip at the end of the year!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you intend to come please come to the packhorse on wednesday where you will be informed who is driving over in their car aswell as various other bits and bobs for the rest of the semester. There will be no minibus on this trip so spaces are limited. On that note its probably worth warning that trips this semester for beginners will be limited so it is even more important that you get out when you can and practice... ideally with someone willing and experienced :o). Have a word with the leeds wall if you want to do a course or search the UKC directories for local contacts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, we have the AGM coming up (I think its just after the easter holidays but ill confirm) when the club elects its new committee. More details on this will be given in the packhorse on wednesday but if you are thinking of running for a position, have a chat to the current committee who im sure will fill you in on what is involved and offer words of advice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There will be no official social this week but Im sure some people will still be heading out though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That be all for now but see you at the packhorse on wednesday,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Toodle pip!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jamie and Si&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8077786639605631889-4949526295080032520?l=www.luumc.co.uk%2Findex.php'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8077786639605631889/posts/default/4949526295080032520'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8077786639605631889/posts/default/4949526295080032520'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.luumc.co.uk/2009/02/club-newscheesy-jingle.html' title='Club news......(cheesy jingle......)'/><author><name>LUUMC</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='05697061109055727151'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8077786639605631889.post-112752823442274111</id><published>2009-02-10T20:58:00.003Z</published><updated>2009-02-10T21:13:32.940Z</updated><title type='text'>Diese woche mit LUUMC</title><content type='html'>Evening all, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks to everyone (and the hikers) for a wicked weekend in scotland.

We'll then go back to Packhorse when it finishes (around 9.30pm).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PAINTBALLING: Sometime this term, hopefully against the hikers! Can you email or facebook me if you're interested so I have an idea of numbers. Cheers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HOODIES: Another batch of hoodies will be ordered in a couple of weeks if you missed out last time, so email me your name, size and colour and bring £22 to the pub.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" &gt;T-SHIRT COMPETITION!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;We are having a T-shirt competition this term. Basically submit a design for the back of a tshirt (the LUUMC logo will go on the front) and the winning design gets used and a free tshirt! This is a long-running event as obviously we all have work so the deadline is the end of term, 20th March, so we can hopefully get them printed over Easter.

So far there's five people on the guest list, we're looking for just one more person to join us in two weeks of sun-drenched bolt clipping on some of the most beautiful and impressive pristine limestone super-crags in Europe. There's not loads of easy stuff at all of the crags, so it would be best if you can climb at least f6a. The harder the better really!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You've got several options of when to come out - dates are 23rd March to 30th March, or 30th March to 10th April. Or even come for the full session of 23rd March to 10th April if you want! We're flying from Leeds-Bradford with jet2, but obviously you can fly from anywhere that's best for you. As long as you land in Malaga at about the right time (1500 on the 23rd or 1200 on the 30th) then it's all good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you'd like any more details then get in touch with Sean.
