31st January

Saturday 31st Jan Finished, although the weather hasn't been kind to us.  Thanks to everyone who has supported me by walking with me or sponsoring me, and  for supporting Dementia UK which provides such amazing support for those affected by dementia. Share

Saturday 31st Jan Still stormy!  Hard to stand up.  Ruby is not deterred though!! Share

27th January

Saturday 31st Jan I was hoping to put more miles in after a weekend away, but Storm Chandra  changed my plans! The heavy rainfall led to the River Otter bursting its banks, so paths along the estuary were closed. At one point, the river and high tide combined to make  the lower end of our road impassable.

21st January

Wednesday 21st Jan Haven't walked much over the last couple of days - only 2.2 miles.  The weather has been atrocious - wet and windy - I've run out of dry 'waterproofs'!" Share

19th January

Monday 19th Jan I only managed a couple of short walks over the weekend, but today completed 5.9 miles with Steph and Annette (and Button, Flossy and of course Ruby).  Included  in our walk was a coffee stop  at Oak Barn!  Thank you ladies! Share

16th January

Saturday 17th Jan Halfway through the month and I've done 40 miles.  Not much walking this week as I've been in London, but 15 days still to go! Share

12th January

Monday 12th Jan After a short walk with both dogs (1.2 miles), Ruby and I set off along the SW Coast path towards Sandy Bay.  The Coast Path was very muddy and slippery, so we turned back at Littleham Cove,  cut across the golf course to the old railway track and headed back to Budleigh.  Ruby was much happier being off the lead and exploring the puddles.  We covered 6.3 miles, so total walk today of 7.5 miles. Share

9th January

Friday 9th Jan Walked to the western end of Budleigh with Ruby.  In the aftermath of the storm,  debris has been deposited high up the beach, but the afternoon was beautiful - sunshine and a blue sky!  Share

8th January

Friday 9th Jan A longer morning walk before storm Goretti arrives - 4.5 miles.  That's it for the day! Share

6th Jan

Tuesday 6th Jan Short walk this morning (1.2 miles) as I'm off to the Memory Cafe at Seachange today.  Beautiful morning though - Amber was happy to pose, though Ruby couldn't stay still long enough! Share

5th January

Monday 5th Jan A short dog walk this morning, before joining a 'litter pick' walk around Budleigh with 'Budleigh Lions Club', 'Plastic  Free Budleigh' and 'Million Mile Clean'.  Thanks to everyone who joined in.  3.5 miles added Share

1st January

Friday 2nd Jan To 'bookend' the day, I did a sunset walk to the western end of Budleigh beach.  Still no sun, so the photo is facing eastwards as the lights came on along the promenade. Share
