With Tramplite Gear closed by Brexit, I've now closed that website and returned to my old one. Here's an update on where I've been these last few years.

Couple of oldies! From the early 90’s while hiking in Snowdonia.
Can you guess which was my shelter ;-)

I'm trying to plan a 'proper adventure' in a relatively tame location - what do you think?

Resuming walking again after a 3 hr break dealing with the poor fox. Fox didn’t make it but the SSPCA were amazing. Going to be a late night tonight!
Ok Twitter. Need your help. Found a live injured fox. Can’t walk but otherwise looks ok. Any rescue centres nr drymen Scotland? I’ve always been told RSPCA will just put them down?
Been in touch with fox rescue Scotland. They believe it’s been poisoned and there’s nothing that can be done. Also left a message with SRSPCA. Not looking good for the poor fox :-(
Milnagavie is famous for being the start of the West Highland Way but that’s not the trail I’m taking today. I will head more easterly to Aviemore using the Rob Roy & SNT trails. Undecided on my route thu the Cairngorms. I’ve plotted many!
November has been great month for a bit of bivving. A small head tarp really adds a lot of comfort. This is from my last trip to the Yorkshire Dales
On a train surrounded by people coughing and spluttering and yet almost nobody is wearing a face covering! What a bunch of selfish bast**ds :-(
A rare sighting of me in a tie. Heading down to Birmingham to say my final goodbye to Andy Howell. He wouldn’t approve of the shirt and tie, but I think will appreciate the Paramo, Aclima and Darn Tough I’m also wearing :-)

2 weeks today my grandad went missing from our home in St. Andrews. I am urging anyone with information to please call 101. We are desperate to find him.
