If you were at the gym, that is bad. If you were at a crag, you shouldn't feel bad if you are there on a Wednesday night!

I am gutted because bouldering mats are so expensive.

Tru, i was really just finding something to get started.

At the crag mid week after work is good. Thats the reason i left the big smoke (Sydney) for small town NZ (Wanaka). I am Stoked about that just gutted i still have to work 9-5 mon-fri.

I am stoked it is only 2 weeks till Chistmas break but i am gutted it is still 2 weeks till Christmas break.

I suppose it is the glass half full half empty thing.

I had to cancel my trip to the Grampians this weekend so I could look at places to rent with my girlfriend. I suggested that we just live in Grampians / Araps on the weekends, and sleep under our respective desks during the week. She wasn't impressed.

I'm gutted that my department manager sunk the knife in in my performance review this week. My boss was actually embarassed to present her comments (one bad call beside a thousand good ones for the year). It made the whole review stink. Was awake 'til 4am last night plotting sweet acts of vengeance. Perhaps a rusty number 8 cam and a certain part of her anatomy (not the part you're thinking)

well Westie, dare I proffer advice but I have found asking for your review to be reviewed by a higher authority because you doubt the veracity of the findings oft brings the amendments you desire and the chrissy bonus that comes with it

I'm gutted because I have no riparian zone in my surrounds to escape this heat!!!!!!!!!

mmm sure Bob - but then you're department manager (in this case) makes or breaks you while the CEO may only help you this once.

I'm gutted I dropped my motor bike on Wed. as it make sit difficult to get to climbing now. Mainly because of the twisted knee which prevents me riding the pushie.

I'm also gutted that one man, Patxi Usobiaga, can do two 9a+'s, one 9a, two 8c+'s, one 8c onsight and one 8b+ onsight in the space of 10 days. I mean, he isn't trying hard enough!!!!!!! :) and makes me feel really weak. Actually that should go herein the Stoked thread.

spectacular. I thought the ocean in madagascar would be bluer....and I thought that big crayfish would be
bigger.

gutted that a climb i have been saving for 2 or 3 years for the onsight (split wave) i fell off today... thought i would cruise it but something to do with being sick as a dog & having not slept in 3 days, combined with ridiculous humidity & no chalk, and fogetting my harness so having to make a prussik jobbie... haha excuses excuses....i could feel the moves were easy as but just couldnt make my body do them!! probably should have just waited aonther week haha

also pretty bummed that my mate lost 500gigs of footage, incl all the footage of me snowboarding over the last 3 seasons & (allegedly) footage of my **big** crash in 06
