Great start to the week as I realise my keys aren’t in my pocket as the front door clicks shut. Now waiting for a locksmith to arrive.

Alright climbing folk, how are you meant to learn how to trust an auto-belay? Even at the sort of heights I’d jump off from a boulder I can not make myself push away and trust what is basically a glorified hoover power cable retractor to take my weight.
Bouldered again, which is rapidly becoming a habit. Managed to top a V1 for the first time (that’s a grade of boulder for the non-climbing folks, not the Nazi rocket), which has made my day since it had a chunky overhang on it as well.
Why is “LLM makes something up rather than say it doesn’t know” headline news just because the thing it made up was something that happened to be someone’s mobile number?

Finally managed to climb a boulder I’ve been bottling out on close to the top for a couple of sessions, which required both technique and a level of confidence in my ability to stick to a single tiny foothold I simply would not have had three weeks ago. I’m as surprised as anyone else to find myself excited to do sport.
I was going to hold off buying any climbing gear until I’d been at it a while but I think at this rate it may be cheaper to buy some shoes than to keep up on blister plasters to deal with the hire shoes.
Deeply disappointed this NFC card on the train doesn’t seem to work. Yes, I will be attempting to make it work on the way home.
