If I sponsor you Dan will I have to shave my head?

Sounds like a LOT of walking, but for a great cause! Count on me for a donation when the time comes.

For now, some helpful advice: “Stay on the road, beware the moors, beware the moon.”

That’s a great cause. And 84 miles…wow!!! I’m not sure I could walk for 84 minutes right now.

Sounds pretty good actually Dan - however I’ll have to stay as a firm “maybe” at the moment. I’ve been struggling with injuries all year, and my knee only can cope with an hour or two walking at most before it seizes up. It’s got a knobbly bit that sticks out. I’ve had an xray and I’m assured it’s come back as “normal” so I’ve no idea what the problem is! I’m back at the docs this week. As Caroline tells me it’s a long way away so I might well be fighting fit by then - but will have to see.

Wow. I’ll await sponsorship arrangements. Didn’t feel able to comment about the last post.

The grandness of this trip is eclipsed only by the greatness of the cause.
