Soon the savage midges will all be asleep for the winter and it'll be time to get out on the hills.

Lace your boots from top to bottom - they're less likely to come undone, and it's easy to unhook the loop from the top couple of loops to get out.

If you take sugar, those little packets they give you with coffee in cafes are easy to carry.
