Meet some new members:

Derrick Harman (636)

My interest in Marilyns began... with a friend called John Henderson.

My favourite Marilyns are... Ben Stack, Quinag group, Belig. Such interesting locations and stunning views.

My least favourite Marilyn is... Torr Achilty. Terrain like jungle, with heather and big ferns.

Do I keep Marilyn bagging a secret? No

I... have got an unusual nickname of Yeni, which was due to my RAF Mountain rescue chum. He called me this, because in Cyprus there is a brand of cigarette called Yeni Harman. The name has stuck with me since February 1963, and lots of people in mountain rescue circles only know me by this name.
