Munro Bragging

Is that a Munro I saw you on last night or are you just shy and retiring.

So in a land far, far away and a time long ago! Me and ma mate wus dossin in the bellach between Foinaven and Arkle.

OK! No too bad. A bit o’ this a bit o’ that but ok.

So here’s what we did.

We went up Foinaven f*****g brilliant. I saw my Broken Spectre. Back down after a long time coping with the mist and late evening light. We had our supper. Then we had a few wee nips and turned in.

In the light of morning we decided to go up Arkle. Brilliant! What a day, we were zipping along, plodding the route. In the distance we spotted a couple! They were heading towards us with not a stitch on.

Shit!

Thoughtfully, they decided to accoutre themselves with what they had and we passed pleasantly saying hi! Whatever!

Previously, I had stood on the top of Beinn Dearg mounted the cairn put a boot on ma heed and declared maself a Munro.

It’s amazing what you can do after a few wee nips!
