We are still nibbling away at Marilyns all over the country. How anyone can get bored with Marilyns is hard to understand as they are just so varied.

Wales has been a bit of a new discovery for us and we are becoming hooked. In October we climbed Tryfan and were so delighted. What 20 years ago was a bit of a dawdle has now become much more challenging, hence the sense of achievement experienced.

One of the best days of 2015 was on the Trotternish Ridge. The landscape is quite unlike anywhere else in Britain and if you have not been there you must pay the area a visit. Scrambling up Broadford's Beinn na Caillich was another highlight. Islands always attract us, and by a combination of cycling and walking from the ferry, we reached the summit of Jura's third Pap, Beinn a'Chaolais.

Finally, for something completely different, we headed to Herefordshire and the Welsh borders in October and thoroughly enjoyed the challenge of finding a few lonely summits in the woods.
