Hey folks!
Seems the server has given me another chance to disturb the silence on the beloved EuroFreaks bo[a]r[e]d. What's up with y'all? Too quiet by any means!
February in Bleau sounds pretty good! Hopefully it's (just slightly) less friction than last year... I mean, at least the snow was a little too much... okay, maybe I'm a just a whiner...
Still successfull in the dating game. Too early for the wedding bells, but I think this'll get me over the winter at least. Wanna take her climbing this weekend  Honestly, I give a damn if a girl can climb. Her choice. It's just... she should be able to give a steady belay on the long run 
- Daniel

Huh? Give her the site's address? That's frikken close to givin' her the keys to my porn drawer. No way, José. Too early for that kind of outings.  First come friends, then comes the family, then we might talk about introducing someone to the Freakage.
Actually I was pretty relieved that my last SO wasn't fast enough in reading English to develop any interest in my posts. Not so sure about this girl...
And for the visual approval... you for once gotta rely on my sense for aesthetics. She's sweet as hell, nuff said.
No plans for Feb by now. I might try to get some days off to visit my bro in Paris. Mumpitz, do you hear me? Brother calling, mattress needed!

chtur, the situation is sadly unchanged, but we will prevail...i don't think the talk for an iced-up meeting ever materialized...
what is rjukan anyway?
in february you should normally have enough of ice to do rock for at least one w-end...probably not me though - i'm drooling for anything lately, at least getting out of belgium for one reason or another, for one day or two...

Morn' folks!
Christian, that site is pretty cool! I assume the place is even cooler - not to say effin' cold...
Honestly I'd love to join you in such a thing. At least I'd want to give it a try. Unfortunatly some unexpected expenses pretty much ripped apart any outline I had for a holiday schedule. A weekend in Fonti might be on the edge - iceclimbing in italy is far beyond any budget. At least until I start selling my body to the night...
Weekend, gals&guys!
- Daniel

Morn' folks!
Monday again, time to brag about the weekend and mourn about the upcoming week.
Mine was one of the laziest possible weekends. The main time I spent in bed, most of the rest on the sofa... ahh, what a wonderful life.
Hope everybody's fine?

Hi everyone,
Hope the weekends were good all around! Paolo and Dave headed off to Fonti for the weekend, where I hear the weather was fabulous! I am, after two years, finally experiencing complications from my talus injury, so, it's off to the surgeon tomorrow. YIKES   . Anyway, we're headed to Font again for Christmas in case anyone else will be there. I might be gimping around in a cast by then, but ... hey, at least I'll work on my campusing skillz! .
I think there's an ice festival scheduled in Italy in January already... a formal thing with reps and gear tents and whatnot. Paolo has more info, but I'm pretty sure we're going. Good time for a reunion??

Hey everybody
I just read about your plans for Fonti. I would like to join you in January or February. The only problem is my left leg. It's not getting better and a friend of mine (a physiotherapist) told me to stop doing sports . That’s what I did the last five weeks but it's not really over jet (another reason why I'm not looking at the page - to depressing). But maybe in January...
Anyway: If there is any need for a place to stay in Paris you are welcome (especially this womanizer who I call my Big Brother  )
To Booger: Good luck from me too. Hope you'll recover as fast as possible.

Seems the EF forum slowly degenerates into a sanatorium for climbing veterans?!? Damn...
Okay, the deal: You all (Taz, Moritz, Julia) bring your legs to the next veterinarian, sorry... bone sorter and get them refinished. Meanwhile Christian telemarks/ice climbs his ass off so he might be fed up and ready for some bouldering. Heiko swallows the rest of the sushi, bellaitalia raises out of the silence, petje and marc and all the rest (including our virtuals thomas and Rasto) sort their schedules and we all meet up late February in Fontainebleau (<-- full name, just to please the frenchman :D).
And: Big bro to little bro'er: If you need a ticket for Jazz Keller at the 24th call our genitor. He lacks a proper phone number (so do I) because your land line is down and your french cell phone number unknown.

no no! I climbed a 5-pitch easy route yesterday. The weather was cloudy, but the nice limestine crag was sheltered from the north wind, the famous Mistral we have down there!
The most difficult part was to find the route,as the guide was not accurate (it told to go up a canyon (!) until its beginning whereas it had to be left in its middle...).
it was a nice mid-december day!

Hey guys,
Speaking of ice and ice axes, etc... does anybody want to offload an old set, or know anyone getting rid of a set of extras? I am really getting desperate to find some affordable used ones. Don't want to fork out the dough for new ones until I've had a chance to spend quality time with a set. I have exceptionally small hands (really, think 8 year old), so... any suggestions? Please don't send me to e-crack... I mean e-bay; I'm a recovering addict.

Huh? Already done with the surgeon and walking (or hopping, whatever, moving)? That'd be good news!

mmm, booger, try maybe camp to camp, they often have announcements for used gear...as for models - i liked rambos, aztars, quarks - all pretty light and efficient for women.
fonti - i should be good for february - Xmas timeframe is too early for me...and my NY should normally happen in ukraine.
btw let's congratulate our new area managers - petje, booger, paolo and myself
