Thanks for the link. We’ve only been in the UK once, and that was 15 years ago up along the Scottish border and in the Lake District. I was just looking at Striding Edge, the precarious hike up Helvellyn that we took then, wondering if we still had the legs or nerves to scramble up there again next summer. It’s still up there as one of the most memorable hikes of my life.

So my knowledge of the south is essentially nil; I didn’t even know where Lincoln was until now. I’d better start doing some research - it will be summer before we know it!

Yes, I got boosted earlier this week, and felt extremely fatigued for the next day and a half. Symptoms actually seemed more pronounced than either of the first two shots, which had affected me only minimally. I figure it's our bodies saying "Hey, this is that attack we were warned about 6 months ago! Gear up antibodies!". No, I'm not a medical professional... :-)

And thanks for being a trooper and getting this new journal started so quickly. Your fans approve!

Chills, fatigue, yep. I was wiped out the following day.

It would be great to hook up over in the UK. I have various multi-day tours planned, but will be based around my hometown of Lincoln.

A super way t o plan routes is the OS mapping site. You can payy, but I access it via this site:

Click on the top link (of the two), then zoom out to locate the general area. You can then zoom in to see the small lanes that are best for cycling. I use it in conjunction with Google Street View.

Funny timing. I’m just reading the back half of your journey from Casablanca, where you’re in Devon hunting down family and Frank Patterson’s sites. If we’re on plan we’ll be through this region in early June. Our Schengen days will be up on 5/30 and the plan is to catch the ferry from Roscoff to Plymouth. We should keep track. It might be your chance to pay up that pint you owe me.

I’ll watch for an interesting chair, but I’m not optimistic. For one, there’s likely no sun. And if there were, a homeless case will be squatting on it.

Back to reality - join the club;)
I'm looking forward to seeing the local streets.
Will you get to take any photos of chairs parked outside?
BTW - I fly to the UK at the end of March and will stay for a few months.
