Crouching Leopard, Hidden Flagon

saw some colleagues and pals in person last night for first time in almost two years. A good sized room, some excellent curry, good beers and plenty of ventilation….didn’t disguise the fact that this was to celebrate someone’s retirement <creaking jealously>

The snow leopard adoption was just of the gifts thoughtfully  organised by one of the gang, recognising our Mark’s love of the beasts which encountered sometimes on his incredible expeditions,  often chronicled in climbing magazines and online..
