Come now Joe. I think we both know you are going to be waiting for me. Should be interesting trying to make a route. It might be a bit stop-starty anyway. I...

Joe and I set off from the car park over from the loch without much of a clue about which way to go. I suggested heading stright upward where there seemed to...
