Aside from the first day at John o'Groats, we have not met anyone else doing the end to end walk, be it North South, or South North. We have spoken to lots of other people who have met other people doing it. One chap we met in the Saloon in Stonehaugh said that he had met five people already doing it whilst walking the Pennine Way, including one person doing it with a banjo in his back! I think that a banjo would be the last thing I would want strapped to the back of my rucksack. I did see on the news that a man had just finished at Land's End after having danced all the way whilst wearing a tutu! And I thought that we stood out as odd.
I think that we finished with the Cotswold Way today as we completed the relatively short leg into Bath. I quite liked the Cotswold Way, despite it being pretty hard going and getting caught in some torrential downpours. Bath is also a nice place and we visited the town centre to get some new waterproofs, before heading off to the Youth Hostel which is slightly out of town, hidden away in the hillside. I wonder if anyone else staying here is doing the end to end.

Heading off on the Cotswold Way for the last time.

Was the fella in the tutu called Bob by any chance?
