Kincraig, October 2004: A birthday and bagging celebration

Tom Anderson

An October meet at Milehouse in Kincraig was to celebrate the 70th birthday of Hamish Brown (the Master) and his 1000th Dawson (Hamish's term for Marilyns). What an interesting weekend - much talk of relative hills, Corbett and Graham Tops (whatever they are) and other sundry lists. The Saturday was dry and gave me an excellent day out on three Monadhliath Munros and the adjacent Graham (you can see I was trained by the Master). I arrived back last at Kincraig and so avoided the queue for the shower. Then on to dinner at the renowned Ossian Hotel for a grand meal and a lot of capital talk, which continued in the hut well into the night. The Sunday was all adieus and cornflakes, as we went our different ways again, me to further the Graham cause and to do some work on the club hut as penance for having a good time. Many thanks to all who attended and to Hamish for inviting us.
