Some inspiration from Rabbie -Farewell to the Highlands, farewell to the North,
The birth-place of Valour, the country of Worth,
Whereever I wonder, whereever I rove,
The hills of the Highlands for ever I love.
My Heart's in the Highlands, my heart is not here,
My heart's in the Highlands, a chasing the deer,
Chasing the wild-deer, and following the roe,
My heart's in the Highlands, whereever I go.
Farewell to the mountains, high-cover'd with snow,
Farewell to the straths and green vallies below,
Farewell to the forests and wild-hanging woods,
Farewell to the torrents and loud-pouring floods.
My heart's in the Highlands.
'You would think living in Scotland I would be used to mountains, yes to look at but not climb! God only knows why I was chosen as part of this group, but I am glad to be part of such an enthusiastic team. This is a fantastic charity and it's pleasing to know that by taking part in this challenge we are helping such a worthwhile cause'.
