Kendal to Slaidburn.

There has been very little contact from the boys with the strong thigh muscles today as, again, they've had problems getting a signal. I believe they followed the A65 because I know they stopped during the morning for a tasty elevenses of toast, tea loaf & scones at Kirkby Lonsdale. Later along the A65 it follows the edge of the Yorkshire Dales, so I imagine that was a pretty route - hopefully they'll be able to send some photos tomorrow. They would then have taken the B6478 to Slaidburn, I think.

Johnny managed to leave a short telephone message from a public call box (I thought they were extinct!) & said the weather was warm enough to have their jackets open, but didn't say if they'd removed any more lycra articles! He also said that, although it was only 44 miles, it was a very hilly journey & they were looking forward to having hot showers followed by dinner - & that was about it before the pips went (haven't heard those for a long time!) More tomorrow :)

  1. Couldn't find this before, Dad reminded me. We'll keep closer tabs on you now.

    Tracey, could you post a rough itinery (sp) please, my JOGraphy isn't too good. See what I did there?

    Nice way of following the progress with your musings. Hope all is well, let us know if you need anything.

  2. Hi Boys

    Sorry, I haven't been following your travels over the last couple of days but it seems that all is well with you both and I can't believe how much progress you have made, halfway already, blimey, keep going.

    I had already write something earlier but then the computer decided to crash on me, so I thought that instead of writing it all again I will try and give you a ring later for a quick chat and hopefully words of encouragement to spur you on ;-)

    Oh, and to also give you some banter about failing my challenges so far ;-)

    Anyway I am going to click the send button and hope it works this time, and hopefully if reception allows will speak to you later.

    All the best

    SY
