FMC Revival 2023
We are an active and friendly club of around 160 members, based on the Fylde Coast, Lancashire. We offer a warm welcome to walkers, climbers and mountaineers of all abilities, who share our enthusiasm for the outdoors.
If you would like to find out more, please explore the rest of the website, come along to one of our meets, including winter social meets in Poulton-le-Fylde.
You can contact us here or find us on Facebook here.
The club meets regularly most weekends throughout the summer and winter months at venues around the UK and at the Club’s two huts, both of which are situated in the English Lake District.

Apologies for some reason I didn't see the FB post........I would have popped in for a couple 😩😩
I've just seen the post..............bit latefor an old bloke....... maybe🤔
Latest club magazine just arrived in the post. Great effort and thanks again to our magazine editor - Christine Fry. Advert for the upcoming FMC Christmas Dinner inside too. Please let Tony Hulme know if you intend to come.
Yes, nice work from the indefatigable editor. 👏 It's brought on a personal reflection that not so long ago one might have featured more prominently in it than being restricted to featuring only on the back pages and in the pub! 😕😉😂
"Nutters" on the the front cover and inside. The content ratio is probably proportional to the participation. Although we probably need more pages devoted to beer
AHH thanks guys-its a pleasure to do it for you even though it drives me mad at times when things just won't go as they should! I enjoy it though and thanks to all who contribute their articles!

Good to see some familiar faces at the wall tonight! At some point we'll try to stick around long enough to make it to the pub afterwards!
There's hope for us yet
Is Mart proposing (again)?
This is this weekend folks, so who is coming on the meet?
Okay how do you get in to this elite club 😂
This meet us looking likely to be cancelled due to lack of participation this weekend! Last chance today! I will cancel if no more come forward!😠
Sorry can’t make it Martin as I have another commitment
Meet cancelled this year due to lack of participants!
Fleetwood Beer festival this week! I shall be there working Thursday afternoon, then sampling in the evening! See you all there?
Blimey. Posh and Becks have come down in the World if the best they can do nowadays is appear on dodgy advertising hoardings.
I know this is going to read like an advertising feature but it may be of interest to members ... I bought some rock shoes today at the newly opened Rock and Run footwear department in the Shoreline Business Park near Milnthorpe. It’s not a walk in shop; you have to book an appointment via the website. But they have a massive selection of stuff, I’ve never seen so many different types of rock boots in one place.
Been around for a while hasn't it?
So, awaiting with bated breath! What did you buy Mark Harding ?🤔
Just bought a pair of La Sportiva shoes at Needle Sports.Then I realised they were called Finale. Might be a message there. And- what did you buy?
For those who have everything 😅:
Looks like a Christmas present!😜
do they do a mug-jug?
Owd Lags/Nobs On behalf of "Grey Leader", I invite all you Owd Lags and Nobs to attend the annual get together at Stair! You know who you are, and if you don't just ask! Table is booked in The Coledale for 7pm Saturday night! Let me know if are coming!
Please book me in Martin.
Hope to join you - stuff to sort first.
Darren you are an old git get yourself away 💗💗
I was hoping to be there this year. Unfortunately, I forgot the date and booked some tickets for a gig that weekend. Have a great time all.
This is TONIGHT folks!! See you there!
I rang Tom Knowles this morning but got no answer. I'll try again later but if anyone sees him please give him a nudge about tonight.
I'll be there....
Great turn out last night at the pub meet! 10 members enjoyed a fine selection of beers!🍺😉

Also this open from today!Our website is now live! 🥳 If you're new to bouldering and fancy a go, we will be running inductions this weekend, just drop us a line to arrange. Please note our postcode takes you to the back of our building, use Hill Street in your sat nav 📡 Looking forward to seeing y'all soon 🫶
Some of our members are attending this!🔥 FOR ONE DAY ONLY - FRESHERS COMP - THURSDAY OCTOBER 26TH🔥 Calling all students young and old, students of life, mature or immature students and students here for a good time! We have a cracking comp on for one night only for ages 12+. Following a very similar style to our Bouldering leagues we will have 25 blocs from V0 to V8+ which will feature the LancasterWall staff's faves or greatest hits if you will. There will be the usual 4 age categories, so fear not, this isn't just for those young whipper-snappers! 😎🧙♀️🧙♂️ This comp is completely FREE to enter and run exclusively on Griptonite, so if you don't already, get that beauty downloaded. The competition will open at 5:30pm and will be blessed by the pizza gods at @aquilapizzeria at 7:30pm providing carnivore and vegan options! 🤤🤤 The comp will close at 8:30pm where we will announce the first place winners for each category. This comp is all about having a casual fun time with a potentially new to you climbing community. We like to think we have a pretty wonderful bunch here at LW so if you've never joined us before, why not pop down and give this comp a go? 😁 See you there! 🔥💪
Me and Andy will be there!
I was intending to go but I have tweaked my back. So may go if it improves but maybe not! 😏
Ru entering the Super-Vets Martin Dale ?
Looks like Preston Wall are listening to feedback. It will be interesting to see whether this trial is successful.Introducing 🙌Pay What You Can Sundays🙌 at PrestonWall.
