Bill and I went on a great course with Jules Fincham over the Speyside hills. The trip started badly with Bill's mobile home breaking down o/s Aviemore and having to be towed to Inverness for Bill to pay even more money to keep his fleet of Mercedes on the road. A great trip through the hills and a monster climb to test the legs took us to the top of the burma Road, then a gr...

Nice evening so headed to NQ with Valerie, my beautiful daughter, and Mark the offio photographer for a spot of climbing and abseil. Val was unimpressed I left the lids and quickdraws behind.doh.but always one to improvise, she got Mark's lid and we made draws from the slings. That was music to Dad's ears.

Out Active If it's easy, it's not worth doing! Sunday, 8 January 2012. North Buttress (no), NE Zig-Zags (no), well must be Curved Ridge. Alpine start saw us ahead of everyone on our way to do the North Buttress of the Bookle. We met our usual Royal Stag on the way, just beyond Bridge of Orchy - saw him last time too, so he must have a wee howff nearby. Glad we never saw a dead deer on the road on the way home tho. Desperately soft snow on the 1st pitch of the NE Z-Z. Ab'ing of the open book corner pitch.

Out Active If it's easy, it's not worth doing! Friday, 30 December 2011. Ledge Route, Ben Nevis. Plans to camp out in North Face car park fell with dreadful weather, so we bunked in the Bank St hostel - not the best place with drunks etc o/s at 2am. However, a 5am rise saw us leaving the NF carpark around 6am ahead of the queues. The Curtain was pretty bare! A great day and my new glove's strategy worked a treat - brilliant industrial rubber gloves courtesy of Mike. Sunday, 18 December 2011. Mark and I h...

After a few weeks of good nav practice, today proved more challenging and despite knowing where I was, I just couldn't tick the boxes in terms of contour interpretation; a knock to the confidence but good to learn from my mistakes. Wednesday, 14 September 2011. Cadbury's milk chocolate.worked it out yet? All in, great value nights and h...
