hope it all goes well. What order are you doing it in?
This has got me thinking I must get my gear out. didn't do any hikes last year must do more, some fantastic Munro's just 45 minutes away.
Don't hassle me

Right! Update! This is happening 8O the weekend of 20th&21st of June. There's a good dozen of us doing it so should be plenty of support for each other! We are hoping to raise a few quid for Stonham mental health and wellbeing. This is who Angela, Neil's widow ( god I hate saying that ) works for. The original plan was to get a charity up and running in Neil's memory (hopefully this will still happen in the future) but there is way more to setting up a charity than we realised and time has got away on us! Also as you can imagine Angie hasn't been on top of the world or felt very proactive, so it was her wish for any funds raised to go to Stonham. https://www.justgiving.com/booch1975/?u ... hiprequest
Appreciate any help anyone could give :thumbup:

Great cause Andy :thumbup:

Wish I'd have seen this post sooner as I'd have joined in :( depression is a excuse the word "funny" thing. Can creep up on you and before you know it you can be a very different person or its something yoy know you suffer with very early on. Not a nice thing to have. I have suffered with it, so has the wife.

Best of luck Andy and the rest of you doing it. My donation is made. Cmon lads just a couple of quid from all of us, it'll all add up.

Thanks Chris for your donation and words of support. I too get depressed from time to time and its a very hard thing to explain and deal with!
