The Hag

Second afternoon of climbing instructing today - my new part time "keep the wolf out of the door" job. I was with a group of year 4s, 24 of them, outside on a small rock outcrop in a wood. The other instructor today, Clive, is a little bit more seasoned and doesn't take any crap from silly people.

Her -friendly- dog was preceding her. The look on her face suggested that she woke up on the wrong foot today, so she took it on us:

The Hag: Why do they (the kids) have to be so noisy?
Clive: They're children, they're enjoying themselves...
The Hag: Well, i'm coming here for peace and quiet!
Clive: Go somewhere else then!

Well done Clive!

Here's a picture of the group approaching the rock face:
