I'd rather be simey, but then no-one cares what I think.

That's right, it's not just about the climbing... it is the playboy lifestyle that revolves around my climbing.

So would I. I hate training and I hate climbing gyms. I would have loved to have had a bluestone wall to climb on but I grew up in Sydney, where there aren't any, so I just bouldered. Bouldering has always been the closest thing to training that I've done, although now I view at as an end in itself, rather than a means to an end.

I am also the master of the 15 second fingerboard workout.

God help me - I have standards! I'd never want to climb like simey and I also reckon bluestone walls suck. I just want to be simey.

Clear now?
