I slept suprisingly well given that I was in a tent, probably due to the fact I end everyday extremely tired. I must say that I look forward to sleeping in a youth hostel again though!
I left the campsite at half past 6 this morning as I was wide awake and wanted an early start so I could find some breakfast. I ate a large fry up in Ross-On-Wye, about an hour from the campsite. I got to Leominster at lunchtime and ate a tuna baguette at a rather nice pub. Leominster is a nice town, and is home to a Cadbury's Chocolate Factory! Yum Yum!
This afternoon became hilly and the going got a bit tougher and I was tired to start with! I crossed into Shropshire and met two other men who are due to arrive in John O'Groats the same day as me. As I got closer to the youth hostel I realised I'd left Millie Moo Bear behind and had to go back and get her. Today has been shorter than the last few and so I'm at a more relaxed speed and still arrived at the youth hostel about 6pm. There is a lovely pub next to the youth hostel and I have met up with a friend for dinner. The locals are very friendly and are very willing to talk to me.
I recieved some letters today from my mother and my fiance. There was an evelope waiting for me when I checked in. I've also had news that Spire FM have run my story as part of the local news bulletin, and I'm also in the June edition of the Amesbury Parish Magazine. Thank you for all the texts and emails I have been recieving, I'm sorry I cannot reply to all of them but I do read them all and I'm very grateful for them.
Bring on tomorrow!
