Firstly, the comments we made were private conversation and we are entiltled to our opinions. Obsessedclimber and Kezza arrived about two hours after we got there and chose to climb right beside us. If our conversation was such a problem perhaps they should have said something or climbed elsewhere. I'll also add that I am definitely not a silent whinger. I frequently throw up my opinions on Chockstone for (see Western Vic. guidebook update info) and regular pass on opinions and information to guide book editors.

Secondly as a bolter I appreciate that no matter what you do you will always get knockers. You either over bolt, under bolt, poorly position, should have used rings, should have used carrots etc. The fact of the matter is you don't always get it right and you'll never please everyone. We definitely appreciate the effort, money and time that has gone into bolting the routes but like I said, we are entitled to have opinions.
