    Yep...the climbing wall will have to wait a while.  It could be combined with doing some of the Mamores over a weekend.  Sorry to have missed the ice climbers.

    Evening Dove and flumpy  :)

    Joyce - there's a great photo of the Highlands on the online BBC Scottish news pages of a photo from the space station. It's completely clear, with all the snow covered summits. Really beautiful. Prof. Brian Cox took one a while ago from a plane - looking east from just off the coast. You can see all the Nevis hills/Mamores/Easains /Grey Corries etc.  :)


    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
