I don't know what is where anymore.
my brain hurts
Dude in brown shirt in the backround is like "Yep, that's a wall."
I guess it does look a little weird... it's on a 45 degree overhang, the camera is perfectly level.
This one is probably more confuzzling.

Bouldering and scrambling certainly (although I can only find pictures of me on the latter), trad and sport not so much.
I live right next to the peak district so I literally only have to pick my mat up and walk an hour from my front door for stacks of quality rock.
This is myself and some housemates doing that outdoor bouldering thing where you look at a rock intently and point lots for a long time. (It is a font 7b problem)

Unfortunately I'm currently suffering from a rotator cuff injury in my left shoulder, which has somewhat put a damper on me doing anything that isn't pretty much entirely right handed for now.
Ah nice one!
Me and some of my mates are thinking about going on a climbing road trip next year through the peak district and finishing in Fontainebleau. I'll give you a shout if we're heading your way :D
Can you do font 7b? I'm up to about 6b these days, only been climbing since march though. I'd like to get up to 7a/b by next summer to ensure I can make the most of the harder problems on the trip.
That sucks about your shoulder. I'm currently battling with an increasingly bad case of trigger finger which is a pain in the ass :(
Found an old picture of myself at my most coolest stage

I can make some one move wonder 7as (or poorly graded indoor 7as) but in general no. There's an amusing one just around the corner from that photo that is a sit start dyno to the top off some pretty standard horrible grit crimps.
(That said the odds of me doing anything slabby in those battered old jokers is unlikely, I've got myself a nice pair of anasazis at the moment, much better)
Have you done much outdoor bouldering though? The indoor and outdoor grades don't tend to compare terribly well.

nope that was years ago
Someone took this picture of me, racing my car at a trackday. You might not actually see it, but I'm wearing a helmet. My head is apparently the biggest in the universe, so the only one I could fit made me look like a retarded person.

I have learned two things from this:
1. Sweater vests are more comfortable than they appear
2. It has been too long sense I tied a tie (I really need to practice, just look at the state of that knot)

Yeah from what I gather an indoor 7a is about font 6a in the real world... I'm currently comfortable with 6a+, got a couple of 6b's but still finding them a good challenge. Hoping to get up to 7a before next summer, which should be doable. I've only been climbing since March so I'm making decent progress.
a photo taken in my basement after a lan party. i'm pretty hungover, but i don't think it shows too bad.

meth is the neatest drug. your body can't process some of the chemicals in meth so if you use enough it'll force it through your skin, making a crystally meth-scab. You can scrape that shit off and smoke it again! Free drugs!

I must admit, it depends who is setting. There are 3 places in Sheffield with bouldering walls and the grades vary massively between them.
Well turns out I've got extreme tendonitis in 3 fingers form climbing too much, 2 have pretty severe trigger finger (when it locks in position due to a damaged tendon) so it looks like I'm gonna be out of it for a while. :(
All I do is climb, No idea what Im gonna do with myself now haha.

Is that something that can be slowly fixed with time/not climbing or is that permanent? Either way I'm sorry to hear that.
I recently discovered that taking photos of my cats while they're yawning is hilarious so when I'm stuck inside I can never be bored now:
