Well, after nearly a month away, we are back on board and back on the move. The trip away was initially going to be a sailing holiday but, for various reasons, that had to be written off so I set about another project, to walk the South West Coast Path. Rather unwisely I set about this project on one of the hottest summers in recent years. In the heat I managed to walk from Poole to Weymouth but, given the amount of water that was being drunk (3/4 gallon a day) decided to delay further walking until the weather cooled down a bit. I managed a few local forays onto the Coast Path and in the time away managed to complete 78 miles of it, that just leaves 551 miles to go!

Once back on the boat have almost done the reverse of the last trip we made before going away, but instead of going as far as Tibberton, it started to rain so we stopped at Dunhampstead. We are heading down to Worcester again and then out onto the Severn heading towards Gloucester and Sharpness.
