SHE reached the summit of the Pap of Glencoe to the sounds of the pipes and a guard of honour formed by walking poles. As Sunny Huang completed a two-year climbing challenge she admitted she was overcome with emotion as it began to sink in just what she had achieved. The 50-year-old Edinburgh nurse became the 77th person to complete what is known as the Full House, and she may well have done it in a record time.

Her latest challenge is incredible, and even more impressive as she’s fitted it around her busy shifts at Edinburgh Royal Infirmary.
