Well what can i say, after last weekend when we did Ben Lomond which was our first munro and it had been sore and miserable we got out of the car determined to have a good day. Of course i should add that i am joined by my good friends again Rob and Steve(username Ruinsteve )

It was an almost perfect day as far as weather goes and we made good time and met some nice people on the way up.

On the way down i saw a nice stack of stone the right height to take a timed Photo of the 3 of us.

Then before we knew it we were back at the bottom with slightly sore feet but apart from that none of us were particularly tired or worse for wear. I think that despite how rounded we are we bagged our second munro fairly easily and really enjoyed it and meeting some really nice people on the way.

Where we going next week ......?
