First Booking….. and it’s only August!!
We’ve pretty much decided that we are going to travel to t he beginning of our Camino by train. Southport – London
London – Paris
Paris – Irun (N. Spain)
Irun – Logrono or Burgos
So last night I was looking at hotels near the Gare Montparnasse in Paris as we will overnight there before catching the TGV. Imagine my shock when I found that only 2 of the hotels near the station had vacancies for the night we need!!! So I’ve booked it.

Heather got new boots last weekend, so we are now both kitted out with Meindl boots. Cotswold in Preston were a great help, measuring feet and giving us loads of advice. Can’t recommend them too highly. My boots (also from Cotswold) got their first serious workout the weekend before last and feel great. They actually feel better when walking than when standing still which is odd!
Hoping to get out locally this weekend. We have a nice 14 mile circular walk in mind which has several pubs and at least one tea shop on the route
P.S. If any member of the Eccleston branch of the family is reading this, could you tell my grandson that I managed to hard boil 2 eggs today without burning them!
