I had a good day at work today – it was exciting to go through my rather large inbox and deposit paperwork around the office for other people to work through whilst I had a lovely long break. Or would I? While I started to come to terms with the fact that it looked like I really would be heading off in the morning to cycle the length of the UK, our tour guides extraordinaire were already chugging along on a 12-hour, perfectly timed train journey to Penzance.
I spent the evening packing my stuff, whilst David (or Bert from here on in) watched, only realising at about midnight that he also should be doing something… true to form. All set by 2am, having hastily set up a ‘Just Giving’ page in recognition that, yes, I really was planning to do a mega bike ride in the morning.
Meanwhile, in the Penzance YHA, Arthur and Calum ate pizza, looked at the rain, and met a lovely lass called Jane in the kitchen.
