So it sounds like mobile comunication was available, not that it had
any baring on the outcome.

he was on a coastal mountain I think, so good chance of it
working. I would assume his wife was glad she could summon help
without leaving him alone.

It is thought they had to ask other walkers to dial 999 for help as they
had no means of communication themselves.

Reading one of todays paper a reporter spoke to him earlier in the
afternoon on his mobile and Robin said he was abit switched off from
work at that moment as he was 1500ft up a mountain so couldnt answer
any questions.

So it sounds like mobile comunication was available, not that it had
any baring on the outcome.

Ben Stack is the sort of place that would probably be OK... Line of
sight to Stornaway, by a road junction and very sharp and steep hill.

Most of the rest of Sutherland would be quite a different story.

No, he was the guy who developed a list of hills to bag.

I have had my doubts bout that attribution as well. Sir Hugh died in
1919 which could well be before Chanel No. 5 was formulated.

Channel No 5 is still fuzzy here, unless I receive it via the Digi Box.

I doubt Sir H wore Chanel #5 .. in bed, or even out of it. Not a boy's
thing, certainly not in his time. Marilyn is much more likely (although
it's probably a bit staid for her).

It was indeed Marilyn that said it, not Sir H. That was the point of
Lachie's joke. Not dissimilar to the pun in calling a hill list
"Marilyns", really. Sorry it's got so laboured.

Ah, I see .. for some reason I expected more from a joke than
mis-attribution of a quote .. especially since, as you say, it's
already been done-to-death with the hill list.

It could well be, perhaps it was really Chanel No 4 or even No 3?
