I'm sorry if I'm being a bit downbeat in regards the Mountain Hardware Tour Lecture but why do most of these lectures never seem to go further North than Manchester/Lakes. I would love to go to one of these Lectures but I live 18 miles west of Aberdeen so the nearest one to me is 400 miles away. Even when they do come North of the Border its usually to Glasgow/Edinburgh. It's a pity that the organisers of these events don't spread them over more of the UK. Anyway rant over, I hope everyone that goes enjoys themselves. I'll at least be able to read about it on the Website.
