5.0 out of 5 stars Loved in Australia, 16 Jun 2000
Having read this book and laughed from cover to cover I posted it to my brother in Australia. He was feeling a bit low and I told him to read this as part of his medicine. He loved it and is now sharing it with his own circle of friends. Recommended reading - buy it!

5.0 out of 5 stars A funny and truthful book about walking in Scotland, 15 May 2000
By A Customer
I find this book endlessly funny and inspiring, no matter how many times I read it. It combines humour with an understanding of the enjoyment to be gained from the Scottish mountains, and some fantastic photos too. Whenever I've not been walking for a while, this book reminds me why I love it so much. Whether you're planning on heading for the Scottish hills or not, it's hysterically funny and lays bare the truth about hillwalking...the pointy mountain you can see is always Shiehallion, the importance of tomato soup, and what is that mystery item you find in the bottom of your rucksack. I could go on, but just buy this book and you'll see what I mean.

5.0 out of 5 stars A completly brilliant and hilarious read!, 21 Jan 2000
By A Customer
This is one of the funniest and most entertaining books I have ever read, not just about mountaineering, but on any subject. Muriel Gray really seems to understand what drives people to scramble up there onto the hig tops, but her wit and observation make it just as funny and relevant to those who've never been near a hill in their lives. ( my couch bound girl-friend couldn't put it down) Can't reccomend this highly enough. More please!
