Cool route! Laurence went off route on the third pitch heading through the middle of the roof landing us on the last pitch of El Matador (19). Little bit tough, but cool climbing! Will have to return to climb the respective routes in their entirety.

Borrow your friends micros for this one! Splendid face climbing, looks blank from the bottom but the holds are there where needed. Pros are just spaced and thin enough to keep the adrenaline flowing. We kept the top crux move for next time, hence grade 19.

Repeat. Climbed with Anna, her first time trading on TM. Goodbye climb with her, fun to share this experience. Realised how gripped I was when I flashed this, was very inexperienced at trad back then. Trad

	19	★★★ El Matador - with Simon 1 15 20m 2 17 15m 3 19 20m	Trad 55m		Ollie
Lead and linked P1 and P2. The 17 P2 felt fine, hauling on jugs through a roof although they were kind of thin flake jugs. Hanging belay stance, first time I did this and I felt I set it up very well, coiling the rope over the clove hitched rope. Lovely to climb with two ropes again, so much easier. I got hit with a small stone in the cheek, really surprised this didn't hurt more or draw blood.
	17	★★ Maid Marion - with Simon 1 14 25m 2 16 10m 3 17 15m 4 14 20m	Trad 70m		Ollie
Linked P1 and P2. I backed off P2, couldn't see the line through that weird block. Was fine when I seconded and saw the hold. Didn't like this pitch though, lots of blocks wobbled and moved around. P3 and 17 quite weird trad style climbing. Also missed a key handhold. Not sure I'd recommend this route, felt quite grotty.
