Whilst drinking, singing and playing at a session in the bar of the Scafell Hotel in the Lakes I met Shinscrapers and his wife. A couple of minutes of singing the praises of Mudcat had them signing up - so welcome to the Mudcat, Shinscrapers!

Hard to throw a welcome party without the guests of honor present.

We actually exist!!
Shinscrapers is the collective name for a bunch of rock climbers, folkies and ardent beer drinkers. We combine all three on Thursday nights ending up at the folk/real ale sessions in the Riflemans' Arms in Kendal. (good music, good beer, terrible climbing!)

Thanks for the warm welcome - any one near Kendal on a Thursday is welcome to join us

Welcome Shinscrapers - I see you just beat me to it in confirming your reality!

Kitty (if it wasn't for climbers, there'd probably be a lot fewer folkies....)

That was certainly the case in the North East forty/fifty years ago Kitty. I was in the Scafell Hotel Bar for the first time in thirty years last summer. It's changed but at least they sold Black Sheep.
Welcome Shinscrapers.

I haven't yet said Welcome to the 'cat. Consider it done. And before I forget, "Hi!"

Sorry about that Ayer's Rock remark. I figured you were Australian (because I figured only an Australian would do those things simultaneously). So, uh, well. 'ello!
