Here he is on our run on Sunday in his favourite, favourite place Cleatops Wood (or 'Sticky' wood as he calls it)

No offence, but why don't you start a blog rather than posting on here?
Like this one for instance.

No offence but many of us enjoy looking at Stolly's pics on here....and long may it continue!!!

Don't we all? Some of the photos are excellent. I am just wondering if Stolly had considered starting a proper blog, as quite a few forum members have done.
I suppose there's always a certain egocentricity and narcissism in any online diary or blog, and I am a little uncomfortable with that. By his own admission, Stolly works in financial matters, and it is well-known that capitalism encourages a focus on gratification and social approval.

JF I've always posted on this thread on the basis that anyone who didn't like it could just not look at it. Its not compulsory. And as for a blog, that would really be taking myself far too seriously. Anyway the year's almost up and I'm pretty much stolly runned out with it all anyway so not long and it'll all be gone :)

Noooooooooo! Don't stop Stolly else I will weep, simples

Come on Stolly someone's got to keep us fresh in yorkshire piccies, Brightside's hill runs would be very boring and comprise mostly of me massaging my ITB. If it weren't for the Stolly hill runs' fantastic coverage of Catrigg Foss i'd never have known it was there. I've scoured that map dozens of times for interesting places to visit and must have missed it every time. I'd never have caught this fish...

...or photographed this frog...

I remember the day well, it was pissing it down and i had forgotten my worms so i had to find some.

If you don't keep it up i'll have to start a really boring thread with my amateur, overexposed, blurry photography; it'll make my Horizon thread look like a night at the ok corral. ;)
