5 Days... 55 miles... One Lonely Knight.
lonelyknight.com
Greetings, wonderful people!
The 23rd April is St Georges Day!
The 29th April is the Royal Wedding in Westminster!
This knight in shining and 'orribly heavy armour will be waving a fond farewell to the town of Worthing this St Georges Day, and marching in full medieval clobber up to the capital over 55 miles away to cast a rose, (from The Rose and Crown in Worthing) before the carriage carrying the happy couple - the Crown (Geddit? see what I did there? clever eh?) as they wave to the millions of adoring subjects.
Heavy Knight
The walk, in full chain and plate armour weighing in at over four million Kilos (give or take), will take 5 days, walking for around 6 hours per day, plus time added on for the slaying of any dragons I happen across on the journey.
I will be seeking refuge and refreshment at random establishments on the way, armed only with a smile, English charm and a good cause (besides the 3 foot fearsome sword) to win enough grub to keep me alive and enough booze to keep me refreshed.
The Knight drags on...
To make matters worse, I will be dragging a treasure chest behind me, which will be getting heavier every mile I walk due to the gold coins which I hope the people of England will be casting into it...
