On my way


I hope the traffic is reducing now. Time to buy petrol and head on my way, arriving much later than planned. I note this blog also has a new follower :)

Ringwood


Having a roadside break. Traffic is stop-start with little of the latter and it's taken about 2 hours to get here from Exbury. I now have a 3.5 hour drive to my planned camping spot but may need to rethink and find somewhere closer. I know of 2 spots but both are uncertain and the opposite direction so it's a bit risky. Will wait here until traffic clears and tuck into my over-priced waitrose rolls.

Just like me


Time is getting on. Time to recharge the batteries (literally) and head towards tonights camping spot with lots of stops on the way and a visit to uncle ronald's.

But here's the real picture: 7000 were lazy steps



More exercise than i've had for months/years!
