Very sad you feel soo low, however remember you take yourself with you wherever you may go.!!! So maybe the answer is to find diversions close to home, phone a friend or one of the many organisations wishing to help and stay in the now thoughtwise and enjoy what you have rather than what you perceive to be freedom. Keep in touch and let us know how you get on.

Warmest wishes, Iside X

The clouds look soft and welcoming, I’m lying on my back, floating along, no gravity. Thank you for posting this Dj1962.

Flying is great fun - I can recommend it... shame about breaking that glider on the Cairngormes.

Many years ago, I was a climber, in the early 60s. Can't even climb stairs now! ;)

A few. I went to Wales with my school Outward Bound Club, (in the winter of 63). Snowdrifts like you'd not imagine, the worst winter for many years. I was the only girl.

Great fun though, there were other girls there at Plas Y Brenin. I spent my 15th birthday there.

Map reading, orienteering, hillwalking, Climbing Tryfan, abseiling, camping out! (that was interesting) the boys went out with tents, the girls got a bothy. On the Friday, we managed to get some skiing in.

I've climbed since, until my knees started protesting, and thoroughly enjoyed it, but nothing really touched that week in Wales!

Cheers, Midori

Excellent, I live just a few miles from Wales..so it's a regular destination for hiking and part of my rehab exercise routine since my bypass..😊

I live in South Wales now, but I was in school in Surrey.

Oh wow, you must have been fit then DJ! I am a bit scared now of heights but it depends! I couldn't do that for sure climbing like you! I be scared stiff, knees shaking and crying, "get me out of here please"! But love the mountain scenery, Creation is amazing!
