If footballers can get knighthoods for kicking balls about a field then Tom deserves a show at the very least, i think that a monument would be fitting.

As an adult i now walk explore the same hills & glens Tom did & understand why he loved the great outdoors.STV Credit where credit's due. Give Tom Weir the praise he deserves.

He had a quite way about him; never pontificating; just letting the enviroment, he was introducing, speak for it's self.
I got the feeling that he would've done Weir's way for nothing.
