Acknowledgments

My thanks to:

• Cameron McNeish for creating this fine trail.
• The Mountain Bothy Association for maintaining some wonderful places to stay. 
• The Staff of Ward 105 at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary who were wonderful.
• Derek for looking after me so well in Inverness during my convalescence and then again afterwards.
• Jim for visiting me in hospital and looking after me when I got out.
• Alan and Martine who helped me on the 2nd and Peter who drove me out on the 3rd of September. I am not sure where I would be without you.
• The Finnish couple for the packet of Hydrocortisone, although as it was all in Finnish it could have been anything!
• Tom and Debbie for being great hosts at the YHA in Ullapool.
• Mary and Rory who hosted me at their lovely castle (and painted my portrait) after the trail.

And to the many others, who gave me lifts or were kind and helpful in other ways great and small, a sincere Thanks!
