Come on the snow!

justr thort id say if anyone wants to borrow some boots, ive got some size 46 (which im guessing is somewhere between 10 and 11) B2 Scarpa Mantas. they wer fine for me in scotland a couple of years ago! more than happy to lend them to anyone who'll treat them well

Yea, they were good for me too last year when I borrowed them. I treated them with respect. You are well generous Rob.

My feet are somewhere between a 9 and a 10 so with a couple of pairs of socks they might do for me. Mind if I come round and try them on at some point?

I've got some Salomon B2 boots, size 9 1/2 if anyone is interested.

I might if I get really excited about doing a route.

Can everyone who is going to Scotland come to an evening of information, banter and general exciting admin that needs to be done before the trip. It is required, it won't take too long, and you will get to meet everyone thats going, discuss all manner of gear related stuff, and generally get excited. You are also required to pay the remainder of the trip, so bring a chequebook or some crisp notes of the monetary variety.

When: 8pm on Tuesday 11th December (next week)

Where: 17 Teignmouth Road, Selly Oak

Who should go: Anyone on the list in the first post

Please confirm your attendance by posting on the thread, or calling/txting me (07786863215)

its a long way to go but i'll definitly be there!
