I'm such a space cadet. The 19th is actually the biggest day in my football teams history. The small matter of a Scottish cup final against our biggest (yet smaller) rivals Hibs :lol: I have tickets so won't make the 19th but if for any reason it changes or can change to the 20th I will defo be up for it.

I will PM you guy's my number in case

I can do the 20th if that's better. Though will you not have too sore a head to walk after the Jambo's lift the cup? :lol:

Hi Guys,

I was up Fhionnlaidh yesterday and combined it with Sgor na h-Ulaidh going up from Glen Etive. Definitely not to be recommended!!!! Very long day! 19.9 km and 2194m of ascent!!!

Your plans sound much more appealing. Enjoy!!! Hope the sun shines for you :D
