Ladies and gentlemen, welcome! Today we're going to explore the joy of friendship, rain, and the undeniable bond of four school friends who thought hill walking was a good idea in Scotland in October!

Ah yes, because nothing says 'reunion' quite like a torrential downpour! What were we thinking, Flea? We could've just booked a nice sunny beach resort. But no, we had to channel our inner mountain goats!

Flea

Oh come on, Mal! The rain adds to the beauty! It’s like nature’s way of reminding us of our school days—miserable, but we still had fun!

p

Mal

Right, because what’s more fun than trudging through mud and reminiscing about the time you got lost in the school field? 'Hey guys, remember when I thought I could survive without a map? Spoiler alert: I couldn’t!'

Flea

And let’s not forget the stories! Hoss, who always had the latest gadgets, can now only communicate with us via smoke signals! Hoss, you still alive back there?

p

Mal

Hey everyone, how many of you have tried to be outdoorsy and ended up regretting it? Show of hands! Yes, that's right! We all have that one friend who insists on 'embracing nature'.

d

Flea

Exactly! Hoss, you’re never gonna live down that time you brought a portable stove and burnt the sausages! We were hiking with smoke alarms instead of walking sticks!

p

Mal

So here we are, drenched and laughing, proving once again that true friendship is about more than just shared interests. It’s about shared disasters! And we’ve certainly got plenty of those. Cheers to us and to the weather that brought us together—sort of!
