After 12 weeks of walking and biking I arrived back in Odcombe. The support was fantastic. From meeting Michele and my Mum and Dad in Dorchester on Friday night, to the ’support cyclists’ and the reception committee at Odcombe church on the Saturday afternoon, the support you have all given me has helped me so much in the final few miles.
So, now i’m back in Odcombe I can finally get some more of the pictures on the website and try to write a more interesting account of my journey.
This is also the time I’m sure you have all been waiting for, it’s time to actually dip your hands in your pockets and donate to the charities we are supporting. ALL the money you donate will go to the charities. To find out more please go to the Charities link on the main nav bar.
Those of you that saw me over the weekend will realise that I was a bit spaced. I don’t know how I was going to feel getting home. Beyond getting excited at being with Michele, my family and friends, I really don’t know what I was gonig to feel. Well, I can tell you now, I feel like I’m on holiday !! that’s right, I keep waking thinking that I’m going to get back on Gertsey at the end of the week, so I aught to make the most of my time here.
Reality is slowly infiltrating my world. I need to find somewhere for us to live, I need to find some sort of way of making money and I have to sort all those other things that I should have been thinking about while away. Oh well, i think the first thing I’m going to do is chill, relax, take it easy and let my body recover a bit.
Anyway, Andy’s here and I’m off to the pub.
