The Corona Strikes Back

So, the mechanics didn’t turn off the lights when they were testing the car, and since I drove back in daylight I failed to notice. The next morning we had a nice flat battery. Fortunately we were able to find a nice couple, Greg and Astrid, to help us jump start the car, and everything was okay after that.

Had a pretty productive day at Britten crag – mostly still climbing 18s, 19s and now 20s. The grades are definitely easier than Wanaka, and it’s really hard to get a feel for what the standard grade is.

We bought a bottle of wine to bring over to our new helpful neighbours, who were going to refuse it unless we sat down with them to share it. We stayed, and got fed some nice lamb mignons from the bbq, some excellent dessert and a glass or two of red wine. What kind people.
