Dave Ayton has climbed a line to the left of In Your Honour, the awesome crack line up behind the Bogside Boulder in the Ogwen Valley. Neighbour to a Classic Crack V3/4/6bish starts standing on the obvious jug side pull, then climbs the blunt arete until it is possible to reach the top cracks of In Your Honour. Finish up this.
Dave also repeated Nige Callender’s other recent addition: Menage et Toi. He flashed it using a different sequence to Nige's, involving a reachy move off a heel/toe lock on the starting block. So: V4/5/6b+/6c with the heel/toe, or V7/8/7a+/7b for Nige’s original method.
Finally, Dave added a left to right lip traverse that finishes up Menage et Toi. 3's a Crowd, V4/6b starts from a crouching position. A further sitting start extension is probably possible from a low undercut.
