"And so we find ourselves at the crag, in the cold, with not a lot on (peak here). You might ask why we got down to our birthday suits in UK, in November? It’s for a good cause and the days spent dodging rain and freezing our chalk bags off were worth it."

No, they're wearing too much and not throwing-up.

In reply to Mick Ryan - UKClimbing.com: Its for the Edale MRT. Why not the local team in Northumberland- they need the money more surely?

The money is being split betweem EMRT and the North East Search and Rescue Team. Edale because they helped us out with an accident in Oct (full article on it's way!) and the North East team, because, well, that's where we climb the most! Maybe the boss people could change the News title to NUMC get naked for MRT? Thanks!

Unfortunately can't edit thread titles or the first post. Have changed the news report.

Apologies for that.

Good job you amend NMC to NUMC. NMC is a different club altogether you know, to which I belong. I was in NUMC a number of years back. The club was more conservative back then, apart from the usual binge drinking. Not that I was into either.

Naked calendar for charity? Is the plot from Calendar Girls? Nothing new under the sun!

I'm in the North of Tyne SRT, which covers Northumberland and Tyne & Wear. I haven't heard NUMC is going to contribute to our fund. Something gone missing along the line.

In reply to Skinny Kin: what are you trying to suggest? If it's what it sounds like thats a pretty nasty accusation to be making.

In reply to Skinny Kin: So what if it's not a new idea! Its raising money for a worthy cause, whats the problem with that? Sorry if it offends you, don't buy it, but keep your cynical comments to yourself

In reply to all: got a sneeky peek at the calanders in the pub - look good some good photos too all nice and 'ary farty' black and white - go on you know your mum wants one for christmas

personally bit impressed at this lot not only doing soemthing for charity (not their own gear / drink fund) especially as they got up before mid day to do it
