KATE (SISTER IN LAW)
My sister-in-law Kate joins us today. As a redhead, she’s in even worse case for sunburn than I am, and requires if anything more covering up than I do. It is good to have the company.
I haven’t got stiff at all, but I have got tired! I’m finding that I’m getting fitter each day, but that the increase in fitness is being balanced by the cumulative fatigue from unrelieved exertion day after day.
The direction finder works well until about lunchtime, when it seems to get a bit tired, and the direction arrow disappears. At one stage, anyway, it directs us round in a circle. I’m fascinated by English place names: we go through Whalley, and Great Mitton, into the Trough of Bolan. Gorgeous scenery, though again extremely hilly. On either side of the road, we see grouse, pheasants and partridges. Also a huge hare, with black ears.
Maggie (Norman’s sister, and our new support driver) is waiting for us at Slaidburn.
