Listen, no need to mock the afflicted.  Ill have you know that I have climbed Liatach South East face direct, Ben Eigh from the corrie up the stone shute in winter conditions as well as the tourist route on a day that was just wonderful to be out in, and Ben Alligan from both east and west.  On the day I climbed Ben Alligan from the west I was acutely embarrassed to be overtaken climbing up the scree by a man with 2 prosthetic legs.   Turns out they were blown off when he was a young boy playing in an electricity sub station.  I just have a bad memory for landscapes. |

Or was that a long time ago  If you have done all that and more - I doff my hat to you sir  I just have a bad memory for landscapes. |

Ach now youve got me riled up. Ahm away to climb the South Glenshiel Ridge and I might just tag on The Forcan Ridge and The Saddle before I need to rush back for the dentists at 3.00p.m. this afternoon. That should leave me a spare half hour or so to check the forum. |
