My start time tomorrow is 6am so I'm off to bed.
My adventures with walking, backpacking, running (hobbling?), cycling, amateur radio, traditional folk music and song...and loads of other stuff.

Hi JJ - Here is an extract from my round the Welsh boundary walk, 20th June 2011:
ReplyDelete"A couple of hours later, just after crossing the River Loughor I came across The Lewis Arms at Bynea. The landlord was outside but he said they were closed, but asked me what I wanted, and when I said a brew of tea I was invited in by Stephen Rogers and his wife Liz for a tea. I had a good old chat with Stephen who told me about him doing The International Four Day Marches at Nijmegen in Holland. This consists of four separate loops on each of four days starting and finishing every time at the same point, and each loop being 50km. Stephen said 50 miles but I got my info. from Wikipedia, but even so it is a formidable achievement by anybody's standards. There you go Gayle another cup of tea to chalk up."
All the best John, keep well hydrated and take plenty of snacky things.
ReplyDeleteQuite right JJ. An early start is a necessity for a Dutch pub crawl.
