Bad Weather Delays Start

We have had to postpone the start of our walk because of all the snow, hail, rain, cold and other challenging weather we have been subjected to recently.
Pledges are beginning to come in though and we have even recevied our first money - somebody out there has confidence that we will complete the task!

Looking the Part

Nearly time to start our walk but as you can see from the ground not much sign of spring yet! Looking forward to starting but 180 miles sounds further now!

The Planning Stage

So the idea is simple - walk the length of the Thames Path (not all at once, though) to raise money for Helpachild, a charity which sponsors children in the town of Grandcess in Liberia to go to school.
We've got all spring and summer to do this, mostly on the weekends and it is about 180 miles in total - no trouble! Well so it seemed to us, Catherine and Angela, over a glass of wine and sitting in a comfy lounge.
