    You still had an adventure, will definitely do the route clockwise.

Hopefully there is plenty left in the tank to go there again and after I finish this round the journey becomes more organic! there are a load of hills I got washed out on so they, like these are up on the list for a second visit hopefully on a sunny day!!! cheers mate and thanks again for the craic!

Thats a mammoth day though and must have been tough. As it turned out we never benefitted much as we got another 8 hours of soaking! heyho maybe the next time! Thanks again! Paul.

Well done to you for taking us along on your glourious wee walks, taking us to places a lot of us would never get to see and enjoy.

    Looks like you boys had a challenging time of it on the hills with the crappy weather and precious little views. Never the best when you felt like you've earned them - especially when you're soaked 🌧 . I'm sure you'll agree that you're not a proper hill walker unless you've been roasted, sunburnt, rained, hailed & snowed on and blown off the mountains. When put like that it makes you wonder why the hell we do it!! It's because we love it! Great to see you both ground it out and were smiling at the end though - that's what it's all about. Another great (and funny) vid Paul. 282 looms close mate - lovin yer work! 🏔👊

    Watching this a couple of days after returning from a week long "ferry bagging" trip.
    Managed to squeeze in Easdale, Luing, Tiree, Armadale on Skye and INVERIE, despite the s##t weather 😅!
    At Inverie I took Cathie on a wee trail called "Knoydart in a Knutshell" which turned out to be a bit muddy. She wasn't amused 😂!
    Made up for it with lunch in the Old Forge and a couple of pints of the local "The Seven Men" beer🍺🍺.
    Haven't been commenting because I don't feel as if I've much to add, but, rest assured I continue to watch your "wee walks".

      I'm still getting out but just lower level stuff. The Ochils, Conic Hill, Ben A'an, that kind of thing. Last Friday (12th) I did the Callander Crags Loop followed by the Bracklinn Falls Circuit. 6 miles, 500m of ascent and barely out of Callander. That's about my level 😂!
