It rained overnight and it is so much cooler today (Sunday) that it was a very pleasant days walking. I was only meant to do 4 miles and have half a day but since it was so nice I carried on all the way to Bridgnorth. I had a very relaxing lunchtime break and clambered out onto a rock in the Severn and dangled my feet in the cool water for an hour, absolute bliss! It was such a different day to yesterday I realised how much the weather effects me, 4-5 degrees cooler today and a bit of a breeze and walking becomes a nice thing to do again!
Zita is coming to visit me tomorrow and walk with me for a day but since I have walked all the way to Bridgnorth today I am going to have Monday off! The next blog will be a guest blog from Zita on what happened on Tuesday as we walked from Bridgnorth to Ironbridge!

Great effort Helen. I'm very impressed and good to see the knees are holding up. Just think it was only a year or so ago and you would winge about walking 100 metres downhill to the Red Lion (or was that just because you wanted to knock back honey bunnies with Emily in Barnies?) Look forward to celebrating the completion of the walk in the not too distant future! P.S David and I found a house in Redbourn!
