Climbing

The multimedia course has had a difficult start, beginning with....how to tie a knot.

As a team building excercise we (and by we I mean 9 of us) went wall climbing at the Nottingham Climbing centre, which took us about an hour to get there by car, stopping at the golf centre for directions before realising it was really just a ten minute drive.

The climbing itself was pretty easy apart from when I got to the top I suddenly remembered I was scared of heights. The hardest part however was tying the knots! Me and Goober were made to stay behind about ten or fifteen minutes to learn how to tie the granny knot and were even given a peice of rope for us to take home and practice with.

This has nothing to do with the multimedia course but never mind. The first week has just finished and we have just had lectures on narratives, stories etc but next week I will comment on the actual work I have done (or at the weekend if I get round to looking at some videos and stuff on the internet).
