Happy New Year

close

You know, I'm constantly proud to be associated with TMA... something which - particularly in this very cynical age - folks do simply because they WANT to, with no thought of material gain; because they care about what would otherwise slip through humanity's fingers if we, too, were not to give a damn.

2024, on a personal level, was pretty stressful, to be fair. Hey ho, shit happens. However, TMA has gone from strength to strength thanks to Holy's reboot (nice one Holy - you and Mr Cope should be proud of what you are doing here). So many new and obscure places are getting a shout-out where nothing existed before (try googling some and see TMA is the first, sometimes only hit).

So thanks all for what you do... and let's see a lot more in 2025. A number of us might need to try and find yet another gear... but for any younger folk out there, well, I envy you with such a blank canvas to be painted as you see fit. So much to be explored. Go for it!

Happy New Year to you and all TMAers.

Completely agree with what you've said; really good to see some new and returning posters since the relaunch.

My gears are definitely lacking at the moment, over a year with a foot problem has reduced my walking and site visits over 2024, plus a few non-health nuisances that are piling up and stopping me getting out at weekends. Maybe this year will be better.

In the meantime, I'm over a year behind with posting stuff, so I've got some catching up to do :)

I thought that read 'find yet another year'. Happy New Year Mr G, SC and everybody.

Someone has suggested I have a look at a couple of hills near Edzell, so I'd better go look. Trips planned for Easter and Summer holidays so it looks like I may yet find another gear.

Good to see someone else from Aberdeenshire posting as well.

Happy New Year to all!

It’s been tremendously exciting to see so much new stuff added to TMA over Xmas, and with new faces to boot. 🩷
