It is high time I updated the blog! Plans change and summer has its pleasant demands with visitors to entertain and grandchildren to care for - not that we would qualify for Mr Shane Ross's grand grant!
A recent chance to visit the UK's South Downs in the company of old college friends was greatly relished, and the sun shone for a full week. Early morning was the best time to sample the glorious undulating paths there before the heat became overpowering.
We have managed only a single day of the lovely Beara Way, and intend to do more, but meanwhile have been busy with shorter local walks and a daily swim in the amazingly warm Atlantic.

I have pushed back the Camino date to the end of September, and will set up the donation site before then. The actual venue remains to be decided, depending on my capability nearer the time. Meanwhile I am heading to Paris next week for a few days with grandchild No 4 : it has been a ritual to introduce them singly to the wonders of my favourite city, with the itinerary left in the hands of each one in their turn: this requires research and planning on their part, and I get to visit places I might not otherwise see. The trip will demand a good bit of exercise and so qualifies for the current training plan!
Au revoir until next time!
