This month we've thoroughly enjoyed reading through your Walk Reports as each one has been quite different. With such a varied selection of destinations, terrain and of course, weather conditions, it's been great to enjoy something a bit different each time. This month there were two that really stood out and one in particular that really put a smile on our faces.

The winner of the £60 to spend at Webtogs is Walking with ghosts: In memory of Jimmy Marshall (1914-2012) by Graeme D. We really enjoyed this extensive and very fitting tribute to your Papa, and unanimously decided that it certainly deserved the win for not only your trip down memory lane, but the history lesson and great images that took us on your journey. Thank you for sharing this wonderful and very personal account; we hope you enjoy spending your prize.

The £30 Webtogs Runner Up Prize goes to ben more and stob binnein, first report by roughwalker. This was a short and sweet visual treat with breathtaking views from the summit. As you mentioned - Magic! We're looking forward to seeing some more of your adventures and we hope you also enjoy spending your prize.

Thanks again for entering and keep them coming! We look forward to reading next months reports.

Final thanks go to my Papa, Jimmy Marshall, who was the real man behind the report and who inspired me to love the hills and wild places, and to be the person I am today! 8) 8)

Wow!!! Wasn't expecting this :D I was sitting in the dentist waiting room when the e-mail for this came through on my phone, there's not many things that can put a smile on my face in a dentist waiting room, but this did. (It was short lived as thoughts of my impending doom began to re-enter my head) :shock: :shock: :shock:
A big thanks to webtogs, glad you enjoyed my report, I surely will enjoy spending the prize. :D :D
And thankyou for all the kind comments :D
