Hi I started climbing in Westway and looking for some more mates to climb with.

I am going there this week, wednesday or thursday, after 7. Dean said he might be able to make it as well.

T'is tempting, haven't been climbing in years and keep thinking about getting back into it.

Is there a reason you go to Westway? I used to go to The Castle a lot.

Well I'm working in London so where doesn't really matter to me. Ari suggested Westway. Actually I used to go to one near Edgware Rd in a sport complex, can't remember what it was called.

Well I work in Hammersmith so found it to be the closest one to me. The Castle and Mile end are about an hour on the tube so not really that nice for an after work climb. There is one near tower bridge as well which I want to check out later.
Yeah bloody expensive in Westway, £10 for a session, £5 one time registration but membership makes quite a bit cheaper. Well, to compensate it is quite a big wall with descent bouldering and outdoor sections.

Think I will go after work today. Dean can't make it today, he got a cold.
Well, there is next week if anyone is interested.
