Walking Thoughts

As I begin to get into the routine of the Walk 60 Miles programme, my thoughts begin to wander. I think about previous walking events I have done for Pancreatic Cancer Uk but also for Prostate Cancer and The Shakespeare Hospice in Stratford on Avon. But my mind wanders further, back to my now distant youth. My former schoolmates who read this may well correct me but I seem to remember lengthy…

31 Miles in October for Pancreatic Cancer UK

Those who know me will understand how important the treatment of Pancreatic Cancer is to me. So each year I undertake some walking event to raise money for the organisations who have supported Margaret and myself before and after her death almost five years ago.

Return of The Shakespeare Stroll

The Shakespeare Stroll returns. Routw planning begins here.

The blistering summer heat is subsiding. We are promised some rain too. In fact I see it falling now outside my cave. Temperatures are falling and the countryside has greened in gratitude to the rain. There is even some…

But I’m back in the cave now and I have a commitment to undertake my September…
