"Tonight Matthew ........... I am going to be ..... drunk"


BOOTS ACROSS SCOTLAND (Ben Lomond 1992)

On Midsummers Day 1992, Alex Smith organised for six of us to climb Ben Lomond as part of "Boots Across Scotland". The group consisted of Alex, David and Tony Smith, Raymund McGrath (Snr) and Raymund McGrath (Jnr) and Mircea Tulbure, a Romanian working alongside Alex and a keen hillwalker. Mircea kept everyone going on this walk with his stories, telling Raymund (jnr) that the bats in his homeland took massive bites out of the trees.
Sadly Mircea died as a result of a car accident on his way home to Romania some months after this outing.
