More “new” material added to the website.
Including a couple of crazy ones where The Cloud was the summit I visited “on the way” to gigs on the Gower Peninsula and in Glasgow!
And a more logical run out to:
Sharp Haw NP-029
Rombalds Moor NP-028
…en route to a gig near Leeds.
Anyway, that completes up to the end of May 2022. Only just over 500 activations to catch up with now…
I’ve now added the summit pages for M1EYP/M0HGY Scotland holiday June/July 2022 activations. 12 new unique summits - and therefore 12 brand new pages on the website. Plus a few others:
Great Whernside NP-008 - and a gig with Tony Christie in Whitley Bay!

I’ve just got another chunk of this done, but cannot ignore the fact that actual real time appears to be moving faster than my summit blog updating time. It shouldn’t be like that as actually activating a summit takes far longer than making a webpage. But it’s beating me at present. That gap between where I’m up to on the website, and where I’m up to in life seems ever-widening!
Anyway, the new pages for you to look at if you can be remotely mithered to, are:
The Cloud SP-015 (lots of SOTA-gig, SOTA-football combos, and “eyeballs” with other activators!)
Gun SP-013 (as The Cloud above!)
Bardon Hill CE-004 (festival gig with a Meatloaf tribute!)
Cracoe Fell NP-032 (wedding gig with “Radio Nowhere”)
And then our first ever trip to Tushielaw Inn…
White Hill SS-289
Grange Fell SS-249
The Wiss SS-122
Turner Cleuch Law SS-140
Cacra Hill SS-179
Ward Law SS-119
Law Kneis SS-168
Rubers Law SS-210
Belling Hill SS-244
