Lydford forest drew me further and further in this afternoon and I got lost. Turned my walk from a stroll to a hike to a tramp to a trudge to a slog.

Trudged up to the hill to the church this morning. Had a quick word with God whilst I was there.

Congratulations, yours is the first correct answer. Here is your virtual Mercedes (its click and collect)
Thankyou for reversing back up those hills👍

Visited this isolated copse high on Dartmoor this afternoon. I'm pretty sure elves live there. First one to identify where it is wins a virtual Mercedes-AMG SL 63 Roadster. There is a clue on the horizon.

Today I completed the 400 mile circuit of Cornwall.
1 million 82 thousand tiring, yet glorious steps 👍
I wonder whether they will let me be an honorary Cornishman now?

Circuit of Cornwall Day 34 Penultimate walk (14 m)
Bridgerule to the Upper Tamar lake. Just one more walk and the circuit is complete.

Circuit of Cornwall Day 33
Lifton to Bridgerule(17miles)
I met Mr Piggy early on and foolishly gave him my scotch egg. I regretted it later.

I’m Halloween ready.

Circuit of Cornwall Day 32
Gunnislake to Lifton.
Autumn is definitely upon us.

The last hurrah before winter.

Circuit of Cornwall Day 31. St Mellion to Gunnislake.
Deep inland now - just outside Cotehele-the Tamar is much smaller now.

Circuit of Cornwall Day 30-Tamar Bridge to St Mellion.
Early morning approaching Cargeen on the Tamar estuary.

Autumn jobs in the garden today included cutting down the Gunnera

Circuit of Cornwall - day 29. Cremyll to the Tamar bridge.
Millpool early morning, so tranquil-good for the soul.

On returning from holiday we carried out an unscheduled Dahlia inspection. I am pleased to report- they passed.

Circuit of Cornwall Day 28. Portwrinkle to Plymouth.
After 300 stunning miles, here at the Cremyll ferry, I have finally run out of Cornish coastal path. Now its time to forge inland and follow the Tamar across the peninsula to complete the circuit. Only 87 miles to go!

Circuit of Cornwall Day 27 - Polperro to Portwrinkle
This is Portnadler bay - I used to catch Wrasse off the headland rocks here - they are not that tasty but the cat absolutely loved them.🐱

Circuit of Cornwall Day 26. Par to Polperro.
Once past the Gribben head it all becomes so familiar;
memories of lazy days at Lantic bay when I was younger.

The Dovecote at Cotehele gardens in Cornwall. I like it so much I want to build my own.

Circuit of Cornwall Day 24 Portloe to Mevagissey.
After 250 miles, this house near Portmellon is definitely my favourite so far. I desire it greatly.

Circuit of Cornwall - day 23
St Mawes to Portloe.
This house at Place opposite St Mawes goes straight into the top 5 houses I have seen (and covet) on my journey so far.

Circuit of Cornwall day 22
Helford to Falmouth. Now I just need to find the ferry across to St Mawes to continue my quest.

Circuit of Cornwall Day 21. Coverack to Helford.
I got to Gillian Creek just in time to wade across before it got too deep. Phew!

Circuit of Cornwall Day 19
Porthleven to The Lizard.
Kynance Cove and some succulents at the Lizard point.

Circuit of Cornwall Day 15
Gurnard’s Head to Cape Cornwall. Came across this stunning field of Phacelia.

I am the proud father of this crazy Echium which has grown 2.5 metres in 4 weeks !!!😯

Circuit of Cornwall Day 9; Porthcothan to Newquay
Traditional Cornish 'Curzyway' dry stone wall covered in Sea Pinks.

Circuit of Cornwall Day 9; Porthcothan - Newquay.
This little fella landed right next to me. None other than one of Cornwall's rare Choughs (currently only 200 birds). Pardon the pun, but I was well chuffed. I swear it bowed to me, which I believe makes me an honorary Cornishman.

Just finished decorating the bus shelter for our village VE Day celebrations.

Circuit of Cornwall Day 8 Padstow to Porthcothan;
Onwards and upwards.....and upwards, and downwards, and very upwards and very downwards etc.
