First post

The packing begins. Lightweight rucksacks purchased, we're arguing about the 8 or 10 kilo limit. Jenny and Mo are leaving England on 16th March via Eurostar and SNCF to Limoges.

We have accommodation for one night before moving to Jenny's house nearby for a few days' "training". Our plan is to start a week earlier than the organised itinerary in order to pace ourselves and build up slowly.

Patsy Skeet is joining us at La Reole on Sunday, 11th April via a Bordeaux flight.

  1. Richard (Peters) and Pam (Parkinson) are joining for a week, starting on 4th May with the first days walking being 16 miles and 2000feet! We think a bit of training may be in order. We had our induction yesterday accompanied by a three course lunch and a few glasses of wine, so I am not sure how much went in except if in doubt leave it out (except for a dressing gown).
    After out weeks walking Pam and I are sloping off to Bilbao to fly back taking the opportunity to see the Guggenheim

  2. Sorry girls, it's better late than never. See you Sunday 11th, hope this works, took me hours of untechno-type trying to find you. Is this the way to communicate? Px
