Yeah, he's been a good friend. We've seen a lot together in our travels: high mountain summits, deep mountain lakes and many excellent pubs. We've had our tough times. Being left at the trailhead while he drove off didn't feel so great. But he came back to pick me up. Every inch of darkening sweat line represents another year of adventure, and I still see him smile when he puts me on.

So well done! Objects like these do become personified in my mind, to the point I feel guilty when I get a new hat or pack.

I thought it was the person speaking but turns out it was the hat, you got me!
