Hey, just back from a weekend trip Chickadee, echoing loudly the previous thoughts. Great bunch to meet up with, had a couple of new faces with us on the last meet. I took a leap of faith myself and met up with fellow WH members only 2 years ago, here am I now organising the meet, so, close your eyes, click your heels 3 times, say "theres no place like torridon" and say YES! lol

Plenty room at the inn Chickadee, can get you in a girls only room too if you're quick. :D

Oh... OK! I will... Def a girls'-only room, Gill! Thank you. I get paid on Friday so I can pay you then, would that be OK? I am pretty low on funds after last month.

OK, I'm being brave! I usually walk solo so this will be a totally new experience. Also I've done loads fewer hills than anyone else, I bet! I'll just hide at the back :D

Just remembered I have something on on the Friday :( Can I come for one night? It'd be just my luck, I'm usually busy when the meets are on but this time I actually do want to go!
