Hi there and just reading your An Squrr experience way back in 2019 and I am that lady that you met that day !! Such horrible weather we encountered but so glad of your company on the way down . My name is Sandra & yes from Dumfries and had planned to do a Munro in 2020 but a lot happened but I did go over to Arran and went up Goatfell , so that’s a start . 👍
Unfortunately last Nov broke my leg & just beginning to begin a little walking this month but hopefully later this year to do the West Highland Way ........obviously restrictions allowing ??
Hope you well out there & enjoying your travels 👍

I thought it was so long after it was highly unlikely you'd see this but so glad you did. Sorry I got your name wrong but at least the last two letters were right! :lol:

Glad you got up Goatfell but sorry about the broken leg. With continuing restrictions you will have plenty of time for local walks as a gradual build up to the WHW. All the best with that - it's a great route through wonderful scenery. :thumbup:
