partner or group wanted

ianh80 — Tue, 22 Jul 2008 19:19:07 GMT

I'm looking for a climbing partner tomorrow anytime as my regulars are on their student hols. Not being a student and being stuck in Manchester I have been left groupless.

I climb 5s and on a good day have been known to cimb 6s and I only top rope (so far).

If you're interested in climbing tomorrow mail me at ianhargreaves80@hotmail.com

Looking for a partner/ group to climb with.

soltinie — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 14:26:21 GMT

Hi,
My name is Natasha, am 24 from chorlton in south manchester.
I have done indoor climbing a long while back and really enjoyed it and now want to get into it more, i started MCC in june but have not had a constant partner to climb with and so i am hoping to meet some new people who go on a regular bases in the evenings after work and sometimes at weekends.

I was climbing level 4/5 when i statred in june. As yet i do not have any climbing equipment but i am hoping to invest if i get to go more often.

I am confident at belaying and know the figure 8 knot but i wouldnt say i know it all.
looking forward to meeting some new people and climbing.

Need a room?

Blue_smurf — Sun, 06 Jul 2008 17:37:50 GMT

Room available in Offerton area; close to Manchester city centre (9miles) with bus and train services nearby or space for own car. This house is also only 8miles from the Peak District! Just to mention a few local climbing crags: 4miles away from New Mills Tor; 6miles from Hobson Moor Quarry, 7miles from Windgather Quarry! Great for climbers!

The house is fully furnished with wireless internet, plus all the usual mod cons (washer, all electrical appliances, etc). Occupied by two outdoor loving, down to earth people, both climbers.

400pcm; the price of rent includes ALL bills (council tax, electricity, gas, water, tv license, phone connection, endless internet access!) However this is on condition that taps aren't left running and lights are turned off after use!

Looking for a friendly house mate, male or female, to share house with.

Please feel free to email me for more details.

need a housemate?

OwenR — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 16:33:51 GMT

Hello.
I've (very) recently moved to Manchester (from all over, but mostly Sheffield).
I've not yet found anywhere to live (staying in my girlfriend's very small room for the time being...)
I'm not getting much of a response through the websites when I say I'm a keen climber! But ideally would move in with folk who can belay...
I'm 28, a pro archaeologist/ climber/ drinker/ also into ice-climbing, walking, biking, darts etc.
Ideally looking for a place in Hulme/ Old Trafford/ M1/ M2 area.

Got a spare room?
Need some help with the mortgage?
Please get in touch for a chat on 07949 419 015.

Thanks,
Owen

Just moved to Manchester from Nottingham and want to get back into climbing after an extended injury break. Looking for someone to head down to the wall with after work, one or two times a week, and possibly have the occasional pint after wards.

Partners needed!

jessicap — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 13:25:52 GMT

I've just moved up to Manchester and i'm looking for climbing partners. I'm 25, I'm working in a community centre in East Manchester and have been climbing once a week for about 6 months - I'm climbing 4s and 5s. I's like to climb outside as well. It'd be good to get a group of people of all abilities together for regular climbing and perhaps fun pub times after!

Can make most weekdays, and sometimes on the weekends.

If you're interested email me at jelly_bean@riseup.net
