I always though of the West Country as being one of the nicer, more refined parts of the UK, yet it seems that the pernicious spread of the Chav underclass with their lack of morality and standards is slowly working its way into every facet of British society. Well done for standing up for your missus and making the dickheads feel like dickheads. All I can say is that I'm just glad I got out when I did!

.............although I'd be very happy if you really did savour every little bit, are you sure this wasn't just a plug for your website? Very cheeky :)

I hate stag parties. So much. English stag parties seem to be in a different league altogether, though. And I can't comprehend for the life of me how some women put up with being treated like the one at your camping site. Truly shocking. Cheers, Jens

Stag Parties.........
........in most cases I completely agree. I remember seeing one stag party in Latvia and one of the members was urinating up Riga's Freedom Monument. I don't understand how similar stag groups seem to lose all morals and respect. Saying that though, the stag parties I have been on, including my own have in no way resembled the stereotypical British stag party. Of course there was alcohol involved, but the stag parties resembled more of a reunion of old friends.....and there were no matching T-shirts! As for the lady and the abusive husband..........I don't know why women would put up with such behaviour........but strangely it's men like these that seem to have a line of women waiting for their services!

I feel tired just thinking about walking all that way!
I've heard that downing a pint of any good quality spirit is also good for dulling the pain of dodgy trotters :) Good luck with your fund raiser! It looks like the weather is better there than it is in here in Indonesia ;)

I think we will practice on the pints of ale before moving onto pints of spirit! When we think of the total distance, it seems slightly insane and ridiculous. But just thinking about each day makes it a lot easier......especially when each day's walk is broken up by tourist attractions, pubs and local culinary treats!

Great picture. Do you do any work in photo shop to get this effect?

Sadly I do.........I really wish my camera and ability was good enough to get this kind of photo first time around. I just use Picasa to touch some photos up from time to time. For this one, I just changed it to sepia and then increase the shadows and light.

We\'re most interested in photo essays and destination tips. I was thinking some of your photos from around the globe could make a great photo essay. Or maybe you\'d be interested in writing a post like \"\"Top 5 Things to See/Do in Mongolia.\"\" Here is the link to our guest post guidelines: https://www.tripping.com/blog/guest-post-opportunities/ I look forward to hearing from you! If you have any other ideas for a guest post, or any friends that might be interested in writing, feel free to share. Best, Sarah :) P.S. We have micro communities on Tripping called \'Networks\' for members to connect based on shared interests and affiliations. There is a Travel Writers Network you might be interested in: https://www.tripping.com/network/63. Approval is required to join the Network (to make sure everyone is in fact a travel blogger) but I\'ll make sure you\'re given access.

It was certainly hard going, but well worth it. I very much doubt if I'd attempt something similar again.

..........I've been a little slack with writing (I blame reality, jobs and life!), but should have regular updates added from now on!

Sorry for being slack...........

Really good writing here. Thanks for all the info and the warnings. It\'s very unfortunate you got duped several times though, yet you sounded really calm and don\'t seem to be bitter about it.

I think part of travelling is to get duped, conned and taken advantage of......only then will you learn from your errors and have one or two amusing stories to tell!

Very impressive!
That's a pretty ambitious undertaking to walk the whole LEJOG. I think it wouldn't be for me, seeing that you carry a 14kg-backpack. But the daily pint thing sounds good! Keen to read more about this epic walk. Cheers, Jens

Ambitious...............
.................or stupid! I think it was the the promise of local ale and the ability to eat large quantities of food and not gain weight that was the main attraction. Certainly not sure if I'd attempt such an endeavour again though.

thanks
While I'd seen this review before, it was great on this site to see all of the student pictures, most of whom I had in my classes the past year. Amazing how much younger they looked only one year ago, especially the SBS 1 kids. Even Kevin, or 'Lord Voldemort' as he was known by the American teachers haha. They were good kids. Only came back home a few weeks ago and feeling nostalgia. Anyway, thanks ShadyAdy
