 I cannot believe that this 'lady' pulled such a stunt!
She could have at least had the decency to wait till next saturday...
Yours,

 I seem to remember hearing or reading that she's decided to do Pendle Hill instead.

 You didn't suss it at the first mention. Mug!!! ;-)

I believed the one about that sheep owning Moel Siabod as well. It's the innocence of youth (ahem).

 Are you being serious Jon, you believed this when it came out????
My immediate thought was to check the date ton see if it was April the First!!
I cannot believe anyone was really taken in by this, or am I missing something????
:-O

 Poor Mary! All you doubters, foolishly believing selfish rumours put about by some clothing manufacturer trying to claim creit for the bravest and boldest mountaineering goal for many a moon.
Prove them wrong Mary W. Go climb your summit. And buy a new coat. Maybe Paramo would be a better brand...

 It was all a mammoth scam...
|
|
What? You mean she isn't really going to climb Pendle Hill?
|
|
 Yep, we were completely taken in, erm, well, maybe not entirely, but you know how naive and trusting journalists are :-)
|
|
 Judging by the coverage she got in some of the tabloids (& the Indy) it looks like some aspects of the media fell for it. After all, the gutter press are not known for self effacing humour. Unlike OM , of course :)

 I looked at the lady's web site it reminded me of one of those sites that show you so much but you have to give your credit card details to see more.
So a mate told me...

 Outrageous. She orta be drummed out of the W.I.
Actually - I think that's my aunty May...

 At least this pair got to Tibet, even if they weren't accompanied by a dog.

 PMSL journalistic hyperbole again! I love the way they happily compare a storm below base camp that just scared a couple of people, to a storm above South Summit, in the death zone, that took peoples lives!
