Fantastic, currently on my phone so can't post the link. Mega congratulations to Rob Woodhall and Eddie Dealtry. Those who know where I post my reports will know where to look.

Wow thats amazing!.. I know one chap that has only got one sea stack to go, and he has spent a lot of money on going out there several times only for the weather to be repeatedly too rubbish.. :? Proper dedication you need for Marilyns.. :wink:

well done guys :}

I knew the trip was on since Rob offered me a space to go for Dun


However, must admit to almost giving up on the Marilyns myself as I am preferring group walks now
