Craig Weldon came of age on hills all around the British Isles, but especially the Munros in Scotland. He braved the high mountains of the Cuillin and the lower tops of Gloucestershire, wild Welsh farmers and even wilder midges in the Highlands. Usually funny, sometimes dangerous, more often wet, one thing was for sure: life was never boring!
