Day 62, 9/6/18

June 9, 2018

Due to my ambition not to use ferries, I had to walk through Truro a walk of 17miles. Left Treloan campsite at 7.10am. I should not be surprised anymore seeing spectacular views on my inland divisions, but I was.

One road turned out to be a farmer's tractor run, deep tread and over grown with plants chest height. My fresh washed clothing was well pollenated, I was the biggest bee that day.

At Truro I was on my last legs. Thank God for Weatherspoons. £6.19 for burger and chips and coffee, plus water. After refuelling and recovery over an hour, the last 4 miles was easy. I must give myself a good lunch break in future. Am looking forward to returning to Truro when Welling play there.

Have now planned camp sites and youth hostels till Thursday when I will walk on from the Lizard.

17 miles, total now 852, SW804404. Cornon Down Campsite.

Hello Tony, read the blog every day and update my map book every couple of days. enjoying the text conversations. The fixture list is out towards the end of June, can start making plans for the winter break, unless we get lucky with the Weston super mare or Bath games.

The Cornwall section of the map is getting very covered in stickers. Need a photo at the Lizzard, can't go any further south on the mainland.
