I'm a lady!!!

BIG, BIG thank you to my lovely team (Huntingdon Older Peoples Team) who was so relieved to see the back of me they bought me a 'title'. I am now officially Lady Julia Jayne Dalton (i can get my passport changed and everything!). With my title comes land in Coniston Water, all 5ft of it, and coat of arms: check them out... I love my team and will miss  you.

Waiting for Colin

Image
This blog relates to Monday.  Today consisted of me waiting for Colin and the motorhome to drive from Cambridge to Charlestown.  It was a nice day: light cloud (hot at times) and slight breeze (chilli at times). I hung around outside the hotel which gets busy with tourists.

Spent the day reading a second hand book: a thriller set in Cambridge. Maybe my next 'ambition' (not challenge) should be writing a book!  Hooray... Colin and the motorhome arrived, how lovely. All is good in the world.  Fitbit records: 10,942 steps, 4.8 miles, and 23 flight of stairs.  Photo's are a selection of my attempts at arty shots over the last few weeks, and by the way Pete i found Poldark in Charlestown.

It can only be described as steep, it continued climbing for nearly a mile (parts of which were very steep).   The rest of the walk to Portwrinkle was a roller coaster, luckily not as steep as the first mile. It took about 70 minutes to walk 2.5miles: the terrain really does limit progress.  Once at Portwrinkle we rewarded ourselves to a nice cuppa tea at the 'jolly roger' cafe.  We pushed onto Tregantle: 2.75miles. Tregantle Fort was built in the 1800's to protect Plymouth and the coast from the dreaded French! The fort and land remains owned by the Ministry of Defence and is still used as a military firing ...
