viewing entry : Halfway!


14/08/2006 19:31 by Dan

After spending an enjoyable previous day walking with an american guy called howard until Gargrave, today has been a bit more testing. Its getting even more lumpy. Walked from Malham to Horton and went over Pen-y-ghent at a bit of a scramble. Our halfway point worked out to be at the summit where we had our picture taken. Yes, we're still ugly. See you in 38 days.

Hey hey!!

Not been away... just not heard anything from the boys. I imagine their phone is out of battery or they've been unable to get a signal... I'll try tracking them down.

Hi boys ~ been a while since we heard from you. I am assuming that Todd is away. Wondering where you have got to and how you are keeping. Seeing Anne & Rob tonight and Janis & Graham. Perhaps there will be an update later so that we can all catch up with your progress. thanks for the letter Just xx

No I'm not a nun, but I am thnking of a new career mmmmmm? perhaps not. Are you still alive, there are no entries. Scenery looks amazing, but then if you've seen one hill you've seen them all. Just come back from Suffolk and the boys watched a lot of Transformers, thought of you Dan, Optimus Prime would be proud of you! Your both doing bloody well, half way is amazing, keep it up xx

Congratulations on getting half way - but where are you now? Its been 3 days.... Have your teeny weeny bodies collapsed under the massive weight of your rucksacks???

Halfway already!! You seem to be moving so quick I'm sure you must have bicycles hidden in your backpacks somewhere! You're doing brilliantly so keep it up, and I agree with every one else - eat more!

i'd send some chocolate and high energy bars to the next food stop, but i know weight is crucial.... don't miss out on any offers of food!xxxx

Great efforts, can't believe how quickly it seems to be going this end! Love to you both....and find some food!!! I didn't help you pack your food parcels to see you looking so thin!!! L x

Glad to see and hear that your still going strong and obviously enjoying it. Missed you guys at Summer Sundae - It was awsome - tried to send out a spirit messenger top reach you but got stuck in Les' tent porch during torrential rain.

Am putting some cold ones by for you when you get back - Gonna try and order from Westgate every Friday so they know spincheap is still alive and kicking!

Bring It On!

Lost a bit of weight then! Perhaps you should eat more apples and bananas! The halfway mark looks alot like Helvellyn! Doing well, keep up the good work!

Hey guys,

Just got the latest voicemail and put it up for you. I'm amazed everytime I check the site as to how well you're progressing... truly brilliant.
Lovin' the photos too... though you're both looking a little bit skinny now ;)
Stroll on!
