Arrived from UK, partner needed in Melbourne

Hello, I just moved to Brunswick from the UK and desperately need to get back into
climbing before I get too fat and weak from living off pies and steamed dim sims and
beer.

Am available to climb at the newly opened Hard Rock CBD (though I haven't registered
yet) and I guess other places but I don't know where they are and I can't drive. During
the day is ok for me as I mostly work from home. Indoors back in the UK I was
climbing about 5c/6a top-rope and maybe 5b-5c leading. I don't know if that translates
very well but the grade conversion chart says that's about 20 in new money.

I have a rack and rope for outdoors, too. Before moving to Oz I'd only been outside a
handful of times to do sport routes in Portland and trad routes up north in places like
Roaches and Stanage. I led up to Severe there and seconded up to HVS. That's, what,
about 16 or something?

Give me a call if you need a partner. 0423458127

Oh, it's Mark, btw :)

Arrived from Europe too (Italy), some months ago. Same fears as you (getting fat and weak) and really in need of climbing. Level of climbing pretty much as you.
I'm available to climb at the Hard Rock in CBD even if I'm in Melbourne just at the weekends.
Anyway looking forward climbing outdoor as soon as it gets warmer.
Quite experienced in it thanks to my beloved Dolomites.
My number: 0420825921

Unfortunately I'm down in Melbourne just at the weekends. So I'm available as a climbing partner Friday night, Sat & Sun all day.
Of course I'm quite ready to go climbing outdoors if someone needs a partner.
