Ian, Tom and I decided to take on the three peaks challenge over the bank holiday weekend. We thought doing the 24 hour challenge would be pushing it with just three of us, so we took our time and climbed one mountain per day!

We climbed Ben Nevis first, taking the back route up the arete and had some fantastic views when the clouds parted.

    We decided to go on a bit of a roadtrip to South Wales and explore the beauty that is the Gower Peninsula.
Not much wind but good times, with some beer and a relaxed camping weekend!

A festival. With beer?
Can't say no to that.

Kim and I went to the CAMRA beer festival at Earl's Court along with Adam, Gary, Lloyd and Holly.
Naturally we tasted some samples and got into the spirit of things  ;O)
