    Hi Ally, It was just great getting a clear top and the bonus of not having to travel to far for a change. Cheers

    Hi Kev, Yes, we were glad to get some clear tops as the forecast was driving us east. Glenshee is always a joy as your half way there when you got the car 🤣 Cheers

    Sorry for late comment Charlie, just back from Glen Affric. That was a great leg stretcher Charlie and good to see weather improving as day went on.☀️👍 Always good to see young Michael out as well👍 When I did the Cairnwell trio think it was the worst rain I’ve had on a munro😂😂 Might have to return in winter to do them again. As always Charlie, great viewing and commentary. I’m not having much luck just now, cycled into Glen Affric hostel only to fall off my bike 100 yards from hostel and rolled down an embarkment a d batterd my ribs against a rock. Had to cycle home next morn without doing any munros😂😂

    Hi Frank, You've certainly been in the wars lately, hope you don't have lasting pain with the ribs. It's a bit frustrating you didn't get any tops but your right to abort if not 100%. At least the ankle appears to be fine and I bet you would be happy with a straightforward couple of hill trips just to get backing the routine. Take care, Charlie

    Heading up that way Thursday as it looks a half decent day...going to use that wee route from A93 to Callater Bothy that you guys did as I have a couple of Munros to do on The Mounth..I saw you guys a few years ago up Broad Cairn as I was heading down.

    Hi Paul, Yes, Glenshee is always worth a visit when the snow is in condition and you have the advantage of the easy parking and the road being kept open for the skiing 👍 We were planning getting back into Knoydart on Monday but the weather is poor so plans changed again. Should be there in the next few weeks all going well. Cheers
