The Shop in Keswick "George Fisher's" was started by the belayer in the Photo

My real name is George Fisher, I used to love seeing the shop when I was a kid. Nice to see a photo of the man himself.

Love that casual shoulder belay?

Is this photo representative of the equipment available when you did the Bludgeon FA, 3 years later in '57? These body belay and no harness images from the past turn my spine to rubber.

For Blugeon same tie in and same belay method,might just have found PA's (EB's)?
