Day 9 JOGLE 3 Summary

Total distance walked this week 104 mile. Total to date 474 miles only another only another 500 to go. We stayed at 5 B&B, 1 Hotel, 1 Pub and 1 YHA. B&Bs are definitely the best. Treacle sponges with custard = 5. Chips x1 only. Pints of beer only 16 - brandy for medicinal purposes x 7. We have concluded that the number of beer pints consumed bears no relation to the volume of snoring what so ever because it is always at the same volume. The only thing that we found to hug was the wooden bench on the last day. Trees need to be chopped back if one is going to enjoy the view along the Cotswold Way. Japanese knot weed is a scourge and needs severe management. Why do herds of cows always have a munch in on the footpath we are trying to walk along. 13 different types of mushroom spotted on route. OS maps aren't keeping pace with re-routed footpaths. Boost bars consumed = 10. No blister plasters used but 25ml of Tinc Benz applied. ”Are we there yet? Or are we halfway yet?” X 20. Number of times Barry had to wait for Ian- countless!!
