I am with Jhimmy on this one. However good the website in question the author is a dishonest idiot whose first approach to this newsgroup (and, according to google, only his second posting to Usenet in 4 years) was the classic spammers opening of 'I have just found [my own] wonderful website'.
I was just about to agree, but checking the post again, all he actually wrote was "Have a look at this new "Munro-ing" website - The Alternative Munros"

One does wonder why he didn't state his connection to the web site. What he wrote has plausible deniality, but it does give the impression of being from a 3rd party. If he had written that he had starting ascending Munros, and was recording his experiences on his web site (URL provided) he would probably have been welcomed to the group. -- Stewart Robert Hinsley

He still might if he replies and apologises for his newbie mistake, but I wonder if he's even reading this thread?

That's what I wondered when I decided not to bother adding a suggestion that he learns a bit about putting images on his website properly. It's the worst example of over-filesized images I've seen in years, and I gave up viewing it at the second page. Must be totally unusable to anyone on dial-up.
