"You'll be having a short day won't you?" Em asked last night. She's getting to know me rather well. In my book the second day of a week's walking is best taken easy. So a short distance out of Lancaster to the next major village. It's been an estuary walk, and tomorrow I'll find the open sea again.

I'm beginning to see Lancaster as a very athletic town. Yesterday I passed playing fields and a velodrome; today I was overtaken by the four hundred competitors of a 20-mile run. It's enough to make my six miles seem very lazy.
