Well went back up Bennachie Oxen Craig side just to get my first blue balloon, unfortunately very cloudy at the top but lovely views from Little Craig, but showed some in-experience when not looking at time I started off so dont know how long it took and looking forward to going back doing both tops in the one walk, have to say muscles in the calves worked unlike running. But think uploading photos here is more challenging this is my 4th time trying since yesterday.
