At the bottom of each post there is the word "comments". If you click on it you will see comments made by followers, and if you follow the instructions you may also comment and I always welcome that. I have found many people overlook this part of the blog which is often more interesting than the original post!

My blog nick-name is SIR HUGH. I'm not from the aristocracy - my middle name is Hugh which relates to the list of 282 hills in Scotland compiled by Sir Hugh Munro in 1891. I climbed my last one (Sgurr Mor) on 28th June 2009

Katie's next birthday present?



Granddaughter Katie was four years old last October, so there's a bit of time to save up for next  October.

During this half term mum took K to the Ice Cream Farm near Chester, a multi-activity venue for kids.

Here is K operating a JCB after only a couple of minutes instruction. It seems she handled this intuitively, so goodness know what the portents are. Anyway, I want to know if adults are allowed and if affirmative I will be joining them next time.

  4. Well done Katie. Its not as easy as it looks folks.
    We used to have competitions who could pick up an egg without breaking it. I doubt i could do it now, i’m out of practice.
    Our valves were more sensitive than the JCB valves.
