    [cite]Posted By: SE10Addick[/cite]thought about cycling it instead?

    you can easily do 30/40 miles each day and you still get to see the sights

    cycling might be harder on those single track paths...

    be fine with a decent mountain bike! might actually be fun!

    Either ride it normally or walk it in an Arsenal shirt.

    All in the name of charity of course....

    Ideal.


    GH, I forgotten that you don't have my supernatural powers. You could walk along the banks of the Thames instead though

    [cite]Posted By: Henry Irving[/cite]How about walking the Thames... It's varied - countryside, towns, cities, Medway slums etc

    Since when were the 'Medway slums' on the Thames?!?!

    There is on the web a group site that started a walk round Britain in 2005 for charity it was going to be 6,000 miles and take over a year. Other than the first page there is no update , i think the scousers ate em !


    Im game (so the ladies tell me) for the charity thing maybe next summer for 3/4 months. Would take that time to plan.maybe be the Devon/Cornwall stretch ? For me the whole coast thing is a bit more personal sort of a farewell thingy.

    I've no idea where the slums are but I imagine that Chatham is near the river. Isn't that a medway town?

    I walked from the car to the Beefeater in Gravesend last night.


    In seriousness, did a charity walk once from Riverhead in Sevenoaks back to Dartford, not major but very hot summers day.

    I do but the limo has darkened glass so I don't know what parts of town they are taking me through. As long as the bubbly is flowing and the massage continues why look out the window

    Looking on the bright side it looks like you might have cut a mile or two off the distance you have to cover:

    slightly less coast

    I did a three day/two night trek in northern hills of Thailand a couple of years back, walked around 25 miles, or so it felt.
