Out of the seven, high profile mountaineers ive met, who successfully summited Everest, only Doug Scott was the most welcoming and approachable.
I was lucky to meet him on two separate occasions, the first was when i gave him a lift to the railway station in Carmarthen to collect his wife off the London train.
As a mark of his appreciation, he gave me a free copy of his brand new book, that retailed for £25, that's the kind of bloke he was, a real gentleman.
The most miserable of all celebrities, was Alan Hinkes, who was at Bangor University back in 2018,
It takes nothing to be pleasant and polite towards total strangers, but Doug Scott will be sadly missed.
