Muttley, that made me laugh. Cackleberry, one of my West Highland Way buffs - dark green (2014?) (there is a new colour and date each year) is up in the Lomond Hills somewhere. I remember taking it out of a pack or pocket, wearing it, then intending to put it back in as it warmed up. But when I got home I didn't have it. Keep expecting to see it. It's been 6 years! The other really important use is to give to someone if they are feeling the cold and have insufficient kit themselves - another WHW one (red 2012?) went to a club mate on a particularly cold, driving snow kind of day up in the Pentland hills. She said she'd return it. That was about 12 years ago, so I think that one's gone?! Mark J - presume you are in the Antipodes? Good to hear from your about your Fetch buff tales. Hope trip to UK goes well.  G

I like my Buff beanies, not the knitted ones though. Although last week at the Brighton 10k I got too warm & ran with it in my hand. Won a Banff Film Festival Buff recently, got loads about the place. |

Cool Mark - is that the ferry between north and south islands (Nelson to Picton, in my memory, but might have that wrong?) Hoping to emigrate to NZ one day, but a bit further north, probably! G

DT, most of mine are running but I do have one "Women in Farming" one. From a local small holder festival? Or possibly one I swapped with my wife because she preferred my pink one and I like her green one? G

G We're about two hours from Picton and the ferry across. I always thought I'd live in the North Island when we first came over. I honestly wouldn't live anywhere else now. It's a proper Goldie Locks zone, in every way. Feel free to keep in touch and pick our brains for any info etc on emigrating. Its so worth it. Been here 10 years now. |

G Years ago there was CalMac ferry called the Suilven on the Ullapool/ Stornoway route. It was notorious for going in rough seas. I remember boarding it in Stornoway harbour and the gang plank was moving, waves were hitting the bow practically at the lighthouse 🤢 It ended up as a cattle boat on the Cook Strait and then worked in Fiji. |
