After a very late night packing maps in to bundles for Mrs Three Points of the Compass to send on to me (yes, I know I have only had a couple of years to prepare) I had a couple of hours sleep prior to rising early for my train into London.
Very excited, a little nervous, concerned about twinges in the back. Really looking forward to the first few miles from Poole railway station.

Wishing you strength, health and an amazing journey.

Thanks Stewart, Industrial Action on South West trains conspiring to annoy me, but no problem, all I have to do is get to the start at Poole and I can then rely on my own locomotion

Well young man, given that I first met you when you were 17 years old I can call you that, you are all set for the off. Good luck mate. Annette and I are looking forward to hearing of your progress. Let’s hope it’s not from the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital, to the Truro General, and from there to Somber & Sons funeral parlour in Penzance. You’ll be fine Jools. Just have fun and enjoy the wonderful experience. See you soon. God bless. Colin

Thanks Colin. Consider joining my WhatsApp group if your antiquated phone does such things. I’ll be posting on that too. If I manage to stay out of A&E and the knackers yard, looking forward to seeing you and Annette in a few weeks I

Best of luck to you! Did my LEJOG last year and it was the best thing I did – my feet may never be the same again but I wouldn’t swop the experience for anything. Enjoy every second of it – even the bits where you aren’t enjoying it 🙂 Bon voyage!
