Glen Coe and why I’m not there…

12:50 pm on the 19th of October, 2002

This weekend is the first meet for the Glagow Mountaineering Club (GUM) which I was intending to go on but for various reasons (like having to get food, drink, a permission slip from my parents because I’m not 18 yet, not having enough equipment with me and forgettoing to sign up on the day I was supposed to) I decided not to, but looking outside today I’m really regretting it, it’s another gorgeous day in Glasgow and from what I’ve heard it’s meant to be better the further north you go. I’m going to have to go to the Kintail meet in December.

I did play volleyball yesterday though which was brilliant after not playing since about May. My shoulders are really complaining today unfortunately, it’s incredible how unfit I’ve become since coming here, that’s going to change. I think I’m going to join the actual volleyball club instead of just going to the drop-in sessions, it’s always better playing with people who know what they’re doing. I burnt my knee playing yesterday which was really sore, it burnt right through the trousers I was wearing, so a pair of knee pads could be a good invesment, if I can find the money (or maybe I’ll get them for my birthday… that’s if any of my family actually read this and can spot a fairly obvious hint)
