This postcard from Josie arrived today...

postcard from Cumbria




CUMBRIA AUG 2002

Still making spectacularly slow progress. Several light years after embarking on coastal odyssey have made it to the Lake District where, atop Hardknott Pass, was blown off a gate in a gale.

Narrowly avoided crushing ill-positioned sheep but succeeded in twanging achilles tendon on port-side ankle. Had to forge onward over further sizeable mounts and hillocks as a rendez-vous awaited with my builder in tourist mecca Windermere. Our planned 2 weeks of rough-stuff riding turned into a fortnight of piggy-backed travel. Can now limp so things are looking up.


Back to latest news.
