Sorry to hear that Machka...hope it mends...oh and well done KonaG on keeping up the post op excercise - that can be tough! It is good to see you back.

Lots of new people doing well on their new goals - well done!

4 august - welsh woods walk
5 august - lovely walk along welsh coastline followed by wave jumping (exhilarating!!)
6 august - walk in welsh hills before walking round a welsh village agricultural show (orange sheep!! Also v cute springer spaniel display - one of the dog breeds we are considering Jeannie...)

Great to be walking in wales. Lovely scenery - all walks a bit short for my liking (90 mins or so) but a lot of rellie viaiting happening too. But I think they have all counted for the 350 goal.
