Story
Talking to the homeless in Weymouth has opened our eyes to how little help is available for them.
We as a team of 4 will be using the funds raised to help in some way ensure everyone has a hot meal in the cold dark winter months by passing the funds to Weymouth soup kitchens along with our volunteered man hours.
The 4 of us are rather stupidly setting off at 2am on 11th June to drive 12 hours from Weymouth to Ben Nevis.
On Sunday we will climb / crawl up and down again the mighty Ben Nevis, Great Britain's highest point.
With no rest because of those flipping Scottish Midges we will then Kayak 80 miles from Newtonmore to Spey Bay.
With 4 kayaks, fully loaded with camp gear this will not be easy. There are troublesome water obstacles to compete with such as the 'washing machine' where one of us at least will get Into difficulties and capsize.
We will be wild camping a challenge in itself.
We will at times need to skillfully negotiate our way past the salmon fishermen who think they own the water and dodge what ever they throw at us.
If it's OK with you, we will fit in a distillery tour along the way to bring some much needed refreshment and joy to this enduring trip.
Lastly, what's really annoying is our 'captain' who even though we will be super exhausted, will still make us tie and secure our belongings to a sturdy tree for security despite there being no one around for miles to possibly nick it.
