On the other hand, other industry members have been out and about recently, Norton even managed to take a ‘three peaks selfie’ during their charity hike. Pink Pig Loans also took on the peaks in Snowdon, hiking up the Scarfell Pike in 6.5 hours and reaching the top of Ben Nevis in 7.5 hours - congratulations to all!

Caption competition
Soho Corporate’s Steven McColl found his way onto TV on the BBC’s show 'Homes Under the Hammer'.
Speaking to The Weekender, Steven, Investment Partner at Soho Corporate, said: “I was recently at an auction and had quietly sat at the back of the room thinking I was off camera, and thought nothing more of it, [until] I got a call saying that I was on BBC’s Homes under the Hammer, yikes I thought, I looked seriously grumpy!”
Steven McColl funds auction purchases for clients through one of the specialist Soho Corporate bridging lines and also apparently buys up some of the properties himself!
So, it would seem this lot didn't interest the Soho Corporate man much, but lets see if your caption can.
