JOGLE 7 Day 11 Thu 11 Sep

Thu  11 Sep Start 0655 Finish 0830 Distance 5.5 Miles From St Just To Lands End.

Had pasty for breakfast never again! It spent the rest of the morning repeating on me! We stopped at Sennen Cove for coffee but the café was not ready, so I had a coke, a cherry scone and a packet of crisps. We arrived at Lands End without much of a to do. It was bit like wetting yourself in a wet suite, you get that lovely warm feeling but no one notices, so no fanfare or crowds cheering us on, just another day in the office really, knowing what you have achieved and the effort it took to do it., is probably only something that you will truly appreciate. We had the obligatory photos taken at the sign post with our sign saying “my wife said its this way”, ironically the sign was pointing towards John O Groats! Is this some sort of sign? LOL – don’t go there! We visited the JOGLE museum, had a good look around, grabbed a coffee and some postcards along with a pin badge. We had an open top bus ride to Penzance which was great and quite an exhilarating ride around the country side and because the ticket machine was not working we didn't pay. We had lunch in Penzance, well it was a cream tea (we hadn’t had one the whole trip), by the way in Cornwall, its cream on top of jam, in Devon it jam on top of cream ok?  We bought a takeaway sandwich for lunch on the train, although travelling first class (thank you Ian) you get bottomless tea/coffee and light snacks and a free copy of the Times paper. The Train was very busy, just as well we booked but we couldn’t get a seat together and was no spare seats. Ian has said he is going to write his JOGLE blog over xmas, but he didn’t say which Xmas!  I arrived in Reading on time and despite the fact that its a new station they are still no signposts to the Reading/Gatwick line!! Got to Farnborough North on time (The train goes from platform 5 at Reading). Job Done. Mission accomplished. The (Lands) End!
