I thought this looked rather good!

Our first promo pic, obviously all posed and lit up for effect, but dang it makes me go all tingly!!!

Still on track for January opening there folks so keep every day free in your diary!!

Helping out

Afternoon everyone!

I have taken a little break from writing inspirational risk assessments to ask a favour and arrange an event.

1) Are you stressed out, angry at work or with a friend or loved one? Then come and try Drllling and t-nutting - using big power tools and bashing the hell out of stuff with a hammer helps get things back into perspective. In exchange for a days action we can offer you a ten climb pass, lunch and as much tea/coffee as you can handle.

2) Perhaps a spouse or even yourself is over keen on decorating the house, quench that thirst by voluntering for 'The Big Paint'on Dec 11th and 12th. This is a weekend fesival of rolling on paint to plywood to the sound of wicked beats, and a thankyou BBQ and Beer evening to show our gratitude. Our professional designer will be there to boss us all around so we don't even have to think, just roll it on baby! People with greater motor skills might be asked to do some cutting in.... Volunteer for one or two days, bring a friend! Bring your Mum! Bring everyone! probably not a great event for vegans however as beer is normally filtered through fish scales (uurrgghh - I know!) and pork sausages and beef burgers normally (unless in McDonalds) havwe animal origins. We also used donkeys and an endangered Burmese Orangutan to help us build the wall as free labour.

email my good self at boulderliverpool@gmail.com to say, 'Ged I want nothing more than to volunteer my body to the cause, take me and use me as you wish.'

Peace out!

 

Round the back of 'Le Elephant' style centre piece, we are connecting it to the back wall with a monster arch, a really terrible panorama this time, but you will get the idea.

Psyched Yet?

 

Ok folks and folkettes - we have been building for seventeen days now and this is what we have to show you!!!!

I apologise that my stitching of photos is worse than my photography but it does a quick glance of the good stuff!

It doesn't show the office, shop, plush shower room, heated changing rooms or the new stuff built downstairs - you know we love you!

Anyway as a point of OMG interest - the big monster thing in the middle was built upside down and rolled over!!!! It was a beast of an operation!

Also how do you fancy early January opening? You are probably excited as i am scared! Excellent!

The BIG questions

 

Now if you're anything like me, anytime you are at a dinner party or meal of some sort, a few bottles of wine get drained and people start dishing out the big questions to which there are never any real answers, life (meaning/purpose of), the universe and if two pigeons inhabited a 5000sqft industrial unit undisturbed for four years, and then you brushed up all their dried poo, how much poo would that be... and so on.... Well ladies and gentlemen, I can now answer one of these questions, the meaning of life is infact to go indoor bouldering, haa haa, my marketing skills are stealthly - did you see that blinder?

At keast I can finally put that tricky pigeon poop question to bed, that wheel barrow was over half full, while sweeping it all up - all i could think was 'Living the dream Ged, living the dream.'

Did I mention...

That we have planning permission and are able to move in whenever we want so that we can start building you good people a bouldering wall?

Relief would be an inadequate word to fully convey the sense of overwhelming release that this crucial decision brings.

All the phone calls and emails and harassing of Liverpool Planning Department - I think I know them all by name now..... Has been worth it to get the green light to build the first outpost of the empire, sorry I mean dream (mwah haa haa haa)....

Thank you everyone for waiting, soon there will be a brand new blog, all official and professional, we have almost decided on a logo/brand, the proper website is under construction and we are ordering some wood soon for the whole building of a wall thang!

I know, I'm exicted too! Anyway, when I'm not totally smashed from an insane day, I'll post some new pics up and crank this whole media machine into action.

Big Love.

There could be news in the pipeline!

Nothing official just now, but positive noises of a very positive nature have recently been made in the region of the last two hurdles. Very cryptic I know, but I'm excited so I thought I would share my excitement with you!

Hold your breath....
