A pleasent end to a bad week

Guy Steven leading The Screen (IV)

This past week has had a distinct lack of climbing. I tried to put an end to this yesterday when I went to go and climb No. 6 Gully on Aonach Dubh, not realizing that I left my boots at home.
So today Guy, Dan and myself headed to Aonach Dubh to climb the screen. I was feeling pretty terrible on the walk in, by the time we arrived at the bottom of the route I was for going home. With some persuasion from Dan and Guy I was tying in and getting on the route. 
Guy completed the route in one pitch then we abseiled off and slid back to the car. 
The weather is going to 'crap out' this weekend so hopefully I will have rid myself of the cold by then.
