The Helpful Climbing Instructor

Have you signed the waiver? Did you pay attention to the safety talk? Have you warmed up? Is your helmet affixed accordingly? Are you sufficiently hydrated? Did you observe the rope tutorial? Have you warmed down? Are your shoelaces tied? Did you remember to take the bins out yesterday? Has your karabiner been assessed for defects? Did you get approval from your doctor? Did you get approval from your milkman? Have you warmed up again? Yes? Okay, you may now have a go on the climbing wall. Oh, sorry — I’m afraid we’re closing up now. See you next week then?
