All this self-promotion for Fifty-One, alongside grafting away at the current work in progress (more on that another time). Well, it gets tiring, and I need to recharge my batteries.
So, I’ll be offline for a few days, walking the latest instalment of England’s South West Coast Path: 630 miles of largely glorious (but often challenging) coastal trail.
I used to dream of doing the whole trail in one go, turning myself into some kind of salty, hermit for six weeks in the wilds. A couple of years ago I accepted that this was never going to happen, and I’ve since been tackling the walk in sections.
I started in Minehead, north Somerset, and headed west, with the sea on my right. Last October I reached St Ives in Cornwall (one of my favourite places in the world). Now, with winter over, I’m heading down to St Ives again to pick up the path and walk round Land’s End.

When I get back, it’s off to FollyCon. Busy, busy, busy.
