Brilliant Nigel or in this case is it Nigella!! What a great way to complete the Munros :clap: It looks like a good time was had by all. One slight criticism, although not practical perhaps a handbag to match your dress would have been nicer than a rucksack :lol: I have to say you have a decent pair of legs especially with your high heels on. Would like to have been there and seen it. I may have even given you a shot of my liippy :wink:

Congratulations :D :clap:

Cheers for the comments, folks,

Re lippy: I had a bright red one, same shade as the dress with me, but forgot all about it - also forgot about the daft cap on the trig point - to busy drinking!

Good sports all round, congratulations on a great achievement.

Congratulations - that's some way to celebrate!

I was at the start point for the Glen Creran approach that morning (hunting for Chequered Skippers before starting the long drive home) and there didn't seem to be anyone heading up the hill.

We started from Etive due to a lack of accommodation on the Creran side, We did see one pair about 50M into the descent as we arrived on the summit, heading back down the Creran side.

Wonder if that one should be the 1st munro of a 2nd round in a dress - could start a new trend ;-)
