This is just to say again a thousand thanks for taking me up the hill with you, and, what's more to the point, getting me down in one piece. I hope I wasn't too much of a burden... I don't think I was. But anyway I'll tell you again that I got so much confidence from your competence. I really thought for a moment or two about bottling out when we got up there in the wind and took a look at the Vasar; it was about as shaky a moment as I can remember in a long long time.

But, taking my cue from you lot, I stuck my courage to the sticking place or whatever it is that you do, girded my old loins and away we went... and I sure am glad I did. It was a truly unforgettable experience. The photos are fabulous, but of course do little justice to the real awe and magnificence of the scenery. Fortunately I still have it in my head.
