University of Birmingham Mountaineering Club


Rogues Gallery:

A collection of UBMC legends - known as the "Old Gits" (or Past-Its)....

Tom Bide

Tom is possibly the most talked about climber in the club. This is despite leaving several years ago and most people not knowing who he is. To get an idea, look up "fool" in the dictionary.

Tom Murray
President 06/07

Tom managed to combine being both a very social climber, as shown here with his favourite belly dancer costume, with some quite hardcore climbing. He has joined the ranks of the unemployed and can often be found drunk or, occasionally, climbing.

Kat Northall
President 05/06

Another legenday President. Did an amazing job considering her roots as a ditzy Essex girl! She remains unbeaten at sock wrestling to this day.

Jonny Moss
President 04/05

Another absolute legend, Jonny left the climbing club to become President of the Navy instead. He is often to be found drunk somewhere.

Ted Dutton
President 03/04

Ed is a particuarly hardcore climber but still finds plenty of time to enjoy his No1 hobby - pissing people off. This has been recently enhanced by him joining the Police Force.

Stuart Ward
Mountain Sec 05/06

Stu spent most of his time in UBMC starting theological debates. But he has been found climbing and is shown here in a particularly legendary pose, stuck in a hole at the Roaches.

Sam Walmsley

Displaying one of his more famous injuries, Sam has become one of UBMCs most impressive unemployed people.

Martin Lane
Gear Sec 04/05

Martin developed a strong love of gear during his time with UBMC. He is also a complete legend and can currently be found with some hot girls in Poland.

Didnt see that one coming.

Megan, Jenny and Mandy

Collectively known as The Angels, these three girls terrorised the hearts of UBMCs male members for many years.

Note the groping.

A Sock Wrestle

Whilst not strictly speaking a "rogue" this shot definitely deserves its place.

The lesser-spotted Sock Wrestle can be seen in the foreground.
Nick Davies
Eternal keeper of FTR

This wonderful yet mysterious man is subtely responsible for low marks in your degree. However, he is yet to accept any blame.

Graeme Schofield

Graeme is extremely hardcore, typified by his famous Northern accent.

He is extremely nice, but should definitely be avoided during any form of combat.

Carl Reilly
Gear Sec 04/05

Not strictly an old git yet but deserves his place. Carl was once described as being "manly and good looking".

Honestly.
