Story

Well i did it!!!!  It was a really awesome journey with so many memories that will stay with me forever. The walk it self  was tough although the weather was kind with rain only on the  last day.

One of the highlights was when we visited a remote village school where six year olds had to learn in truly appauling conditions..albeit they never stopped smiling. Myself and the staff are going to adopt the school and see if we can improve things for them.

The toughest part was the camping...on carparks, manure filled fields and the rest. Sleep depravation played its part as well as Bruce who shared my tent could snore for Britain. I also dont want another chinese meal for at least a year!

Still Doris my mother in law would be proud when all the monies in i should raise  £13000. Well done to each and everyone of my sponsors and a heartfelt THANKYOU.
