    Beautiful weather for the solstice, and an interesting poncho. Sounded a little hoarse on that hike, dehydration will do your knees in too I reckon. Fasting would mean a cold night for me, too!
    Nice one Mark, keep on trucking 🍻

      Yes, a late meal before bed does create a bit of heat. lost a few pounds though. Will hopefully stretch the distance as I get fitter and lighter. Thanks for taking a look.👍

      Thanks for the support, it was an interesting little adventure. Carried the fast on for 5 days and dropped 12lbs, feel a bit lighter on my feet now.😄👍

    Hi Mark i know your pain. Did a weekend walk with wild camp last weekend. 17k and 10k (10 mile and 6 mile) with a 14kg bag. My knees weren't to happy after that. Great film as always.

      Thanks, it was a struggle but will get easier I guess. Sitting under a tree sipping water on the Wansdyke, I could see Silbury hill in the distance, and it looked all down hill. Of course it wasn`t, but that`s what kept me going really.

    Wow, quite an experience ,a bit like yourself too many people there ,prefer my own Company ,still good to do it once . I use a American Whoopie blanket with a zip built-in into works well lighter than a wool blanket , there are lots of Chinese fakes though, you need a proper original one but not cheap ,to go with the Poncho .you are doing so well the weight is falling off of you. Your huge efforts is paying off well done.

      Thanks Lee. Great idea with the zip, I do like the knowledge I can get out quick though, which is a big appeal for this and cowboy rolls. I am surprisingly paranoid for someone who sleeps alone in the woods. 😂😂
