Thanks Pat. Whether religious or not, the hills have an unrivalled spiritual quality all of their own. 
You’re right, Ian. That’s good advice. The day will come, or maybe it’s here, when we can no longer do so. My late father often said: “ yes, we’ll do that when the better weather comes…”. Of course, the better weather rarely arrives so we need to make the best of every day,regardless of the “weather”, by being positive, calm and, above all, kind to ourselves and others.
