My story

We did it and Joe's written a poem about the experience:

Ben Nevis is

Ludicrously long

Super steep

Helplessly hard

Terribly tiring

It is rocky like a rough, raging Rhino

And is GINORMOUS like a giraffe.

It is also taller than a tyrannosaurus rex.

BUT

It is incredibly exciting

Fabulous fun

Amazingly awesome

It also has a breathtaking view

But the best thing about climbing Ben Nevis

Is when you get to the bottom!!!

Many thanks for your support. Joe skipped up and down, Zak did extra scrambles to keep himself amused, Gemma conquered all her fears and got down first, Tom came last using the walking stick and Jan is still stiff 2 weeks on!

We and the orphanage in Zimbabwe really appreciate your support.

Tom, Jan, Gemma, Zak & Joe Watt
