A Selection of Photograghs

I have uploaded some photos for those who would like to see where I went & should there be any doubting Thomas's out there, a picture or two of the top.
I arrived back 0n the 12th after an uneventfull journey home to be re-united with the Glasgow climate, something I have not missed.
I have been asked if I thought the whole enterprise was worthwhile, anyone who has managed to carry out something they consider a personal challenge will answer that. They also have asked me what is next, well.............................I have an idea or two.
Thanks to all who left comments.. to do it click on the comments below. The comments are at the end of each log & can be accessed by all.

Yours Sincerely Stephen W M Smart.
