About Me

I've recently retired and I've been doing long distance walks for some years now - this one is the biggest yet though.

Ahead of my game.

As my calf seems to have sorted itself out I had a great day's walk today - 18 miles from Germansweek to Bondleigh.  I had planned only to go as far as Hatherleigh but I decided to crack on whilst things are going well.
Wow!
The walk today took me up and down 10 hills. I am not complaining, in fact I feel very privileged to be here doing this, especially when rewarded with some outstanding views again. 
Well worth the walk up.

I'm turning into a bit of a Bill Oddie lately as I seem to be developing an interest in birds on this part of the journey. Saw more Buzzards again today as well as Sparrowhawks and Kestrels - fantastic!

I'm going to take Sunday off as a reward for progress made, but perhaps, more importantly I need to move camp to the next site now.

I'll blog again soon.  Take care all.
