New Team Member – Introducing Robert Lynn
Hello,
Having been involved in the training walks that Alan Hill and David Cochrane were doing it was a privilege and total surprise to be asked to join the team going to climb Kilimanjaro for HIT Scotland. An opportunity not to be missed.
I missed the deadline for the Catering In Scotland Magazine article, but thought it best to stick to the same format to tell you more about me.
Occupation: MD of Stag Shopfitting Ltd, specialists joinery manufacturing company in Stirling . Have fitted many Hotels and Restaurants throughout the UK
Reason for taking part in the climb: I have recently started some serious hill walking and found it really exhilarating, so when the chance of going on this exciting challenge was presented to me I couldn’t resist. The fact that I was helping towards a very worthy cause made it all the more worthwhile.
Likes: Golf, walking and spending time with my family, but also very fond of gourmet food and wine! Hence the need for the exercise to keep me in shape!
Dislikes: Late starts and missing the best part of the day, have to admit that I am an early bird.
Training to date: Spent quite a few Sundays recently bagging Munros with fellow sufferers, but, although tough and freezing, thoroughly enjoyed myself! Perfect too for getting to know the GPS better (boys and their toys!)
A lesser known fact about me: In 1993 I was responsible for surveying and manufacturing the shopfittings and transporting them to Russia to then furnish the first Scottish shop in St.Petersburg. .This shop was then opened on St Andrews day (appropriate since St.Andrew is the Patron Saint of both nations).
