No, but we're right next to Dornoch! Boom boom. Quite a long day today as we continue our way northward. We passed the 900 mile mark, so less than 100 miles to go. Which is a good thing because I don't think the boots will take much more. There really aren't any footpaths here, so we're having to walk along roads. There is quite a bit of evidence of the Picts, from cairns to carved stones. One of which we saw at Edderton church that dates back to 700 A.D. Tomorrow we cross the Dornoch firth.

well done ..another bridge tomorrow,as you're following the A9 you won't be treading in any sheep pooh or boar thistles so the locals will still be able to make the haggis

Hi boy's

I know what you mean about the absence of footpaths in Scotland. Road walking sucks!! It's not like down here, don't give f**k and walk where you you wana go. Remember you know LES.

i'm going to let you off that gag - but only because you're obviously losing your minds at this stage.

that reminds me; i know a good one about a pict, an angle and a bicycle pump, but i'll tell you it when you get back.

hope everything is going well and you're ready for the final push

still amazed at your progress

keep it up and see you soon

Can't express how much we admire what you're doing. So many people talk, but so few do!!! What are you going to do next? Not long now.... xx
