Headed to Point Perp again on the weekend. Drove down Friday night and got there reasonably quickly which was nice, needed some sleep.

Weather was awesome on Saturday and we managed to hit the cliff by about 8:30 which was quite impressive I thought. Some of the others had a minor incident with a Wombat late on Friday night and were a bit late getting in, they’re all OK though thankfully.

After 10 minutes searching for my damn contact lens after it blew out of my hand (a bit windy!), I jumped at the chance to second a 19 with Clancy. Actually to be fair Maurice seconded it, I thirded (?). Great climb, and a nice start to the day.

Later I managed a nice 16, although I think I was off route, and did Elspeth again just for the view.

After lunch Clancy decided he wanted to lead something next to Room With a View which was 21 and didn’t have much gear. I volunteered to second, just for the thrills. He breezed up it in the end, and I managed to second it after one “rest”, oh well.

Most people headed home on Saturday night, but not until after we went to Zac’s in Currarong for fish and chips. Nice. Me, Maurice, Truc and Derek camped again at Honey Moon bay. We went to bed early, both tired and depressed at events in Canberra.

Sunday we took it pretty easy, just lazing around on the beach until about noon. I tried to stay in the shade due to a slight mixup on Saturday with sunscreen (burnt!).

In the afternoon we headed to Thompson’s Point for a quick run around. Maurice and I both led Santa’s Little Helper (3* 15, very nice) and then mucked around on the Descent Gully side wall where there was a breeze (damn hot elsewhere).
