    Well done Nick & Stan. What you achieved is nothing more than incredible. I’m so gutted that I missed your journey but am am so glad that you recorded it all to assist Munro baggers like myself to complete this epic challenge 👍🏻

      You should write a book of your journey through the planning stage, doing them, standing on top of Ben Lomond and then the feeling afterwards which must have been a mixture of jubilation and sadness that it was all over. Easy book to create, 300 chapters. Chapter 1, intro and plan. Chapters 2 to 283 - one for each Munro and then chapter 283 - a summary of the best bits and thanks. I’d buy it. Plus you could wrap all the videos into a DVD that could go with the book. Another project maybe 🤔😂

    Congratulations Nick. That really is a big year with the Wainwrights. I'd have been much happier accompanying you than my 23 hour travel day feeling lousy with COVID. I was particularly delighted with your choice of descent - you've come a long way. I guess it is time to redo all the Munros that you didn't get a view from and to try totally different routes - you have to do something or you are in danger of feeling very flat.

      @baggingthemunros3354  Před rokem

      Thanks Eddie, I appreciate all your comments , encouragement and advice.. over this last year… I hadn’t realised how green I was…. I saw danger everywhere, and was petrified of loosing my way…. Your early advice is obvious to me now.
      I hope you get better soon… and I genuinely do appreciate your feedback.

    Fantastic Nick and Stan.😃🐕👏👏Thoroughly enjoyed tuning in to see what ones you were doing next including pronunciations(they made me laugh 🤣 🤣)over the last year.You really are a machine to do all of this in such a short space of tine.Loved the stats at the end and what an amazing walking stick you have been etching.
    This year I had hoped to compleat until I fractured my foot In February.🦶😥.Been training with small hills and hope to be back out on my 1st Munro again starting with Ben More(Mull) in August .
    37 for me go.😃👍
