I think that layback crack was <a href="http://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/c.php?i=48840" rel="nofollow">Good Time</a> but the UKC descriptions are too poor to tell for sure.

UKC suggests the route might now deserve HVS 5b with the missing tombstone. I imagine it's a bit more sustained now too, without that rest you see me enjoying there, which comes just before the crux. We'll have to go back and give it a try in it's new configuration :o) It gets worse: I placed gear behind the flake too - even though I knew when I placed it that it’d be a Really Bad Idea to fall on it!
