    Did it make a difference

    Such a beautiful, thoughtful thread William - thank you for posting it. I can say a wholehearted “yes” to your first two questions and for the third, see who I am, under my avatar. Like so very many on this Forum, I think about the Camino in a larger sense every day and it has brought so much...

    RIP @annakappa

    Thanks so much for sharing this sad news @SabsP - may Anna and Fraluchi walk many more caminos - always together - and in glory. Their contributions to the Forum over so many years were inspirational and always so kind and generous.

    BBC "Pilgrimage" series 6 - North Wales Pilgrim Way

    Thanks @Bradypus for this thread. I’ve watched every one of the previous series and loved them all - they all had their own magic. I hope Lee Ingleby is doing the narration again - he’s done a fine job with each of the previous series. Cheers from Oz - Jenny

    The Way, My Way - the movie

    Hi Don - I checked with Bill - now this will disappoint but it’s water … apparently producers don’t allow alcohol on set/on location etc. What a shame for Bill and John that it wasn’t the most delicious Queimada! That’s special! Best wishes from Oz - Jenny

    The Way, My Way - the movie

    Hi Don and Bradypus - yes, John does have a role in the film. I won’t be a spoiler - all I will say is that everyone who sees the film will LOVE the scenes he’s in and will also love the film itself. Like @SteveSherry, I saw the final cut of the movie late last year, plus a previous rough...

    Hospitaleros & The Pilgrim

    I’m another person who has volunteered at Refugio Gaucelmo - in 2014, 2016 and 2018. The albergue is very beautiful and the facilities are top knotch. The CSJ have taken a great deal of time, effort and finance over many decades now to make Gaucelmo as lovely as it can be - IMO it’s one of...

    Asking for Encouragement to Continue the Camino

    Hi Christina - it’s wonderful that you’re continuing on to Santiago. Best wishes for every step. If you have time, at the Pilgrims Office in Santiago there is a lovely chapel where Mass is in English every morning (except Sunday I think, but check) at 10.30. It’s officiated by Fr. Manny who...

    Cats on the Camino

    Gosh, @good_old_shoes, this really is my favourite Cathedral photo EVER! I remember when you first posted it and was totally heart-struck with joy by it at the time and also with your story. How beautiful your little catigrino is and he looks so well! He’s one lucky cat. Cheers from Oz - Jenny

    Perfect lightweight backpack for baguettes??

    And with the shape of the pack you could also swing by Wimbledon to get a few sets in before jetting off to your Camino starting point, that is if you’ve remembered to put the tennis racquet inside! Yay Team Camino! 🎾😀🏆 Cheers from Oz - Jenny

    John Brierley is seriously ill - an invitation to send messages of thanks and support.

    I’ve used - and loved - John’s guidebooks since 2012. Not only has he provided all the nuts and bolts information needed, he also included The Practical Path and The Mystical Path. I would read the relevant pages of the guidebook each morning before I set off and on so many occasions John’s...

    Outraged

    Hi Graeme - have these past few albergues you’ve all stayed in been Municipals? If so, perhaps avoid them for a couple of days after you have your hotel stay in Ourense, if you can, by staying at private albergues. These selfish, obnoxious people might only be staying in munis and if you don’t...

    Tell me your “everything is going haywire on my Camino” stories

    I second your post @mary_mh - I too have been moved by Curly Cath’s account of the difficulties in having to leave Spain. Curly Cath - I hope you’ve been able to return and complete your camino and that it was a joyous time. Cheers from Oz - Jenny

    BBC tv series: "Pilgrimage: The Road Through Portugal" - starts 7 April

    So delighted to see another series of ‘Pilgrimage’, @Bradypus - I’ve loved all the other series and if Lee Ingleby does the narration once again that will be fantastic. Thanks for alerting us all to it. Can’t wait for it to be screened on the tv here in Australia … in the meantime I’ll try to...

    For coffee addicts that like to walk early

    Hi Damien - A fantastic cafe con leche awaits you in Camas, basically the first suburb you pass through after you leave the centre of Seville and which is around 5kms out. I really enjoyed this one last April at a cafe on the right hand side of the straight road out of town past the Plaza...

    Cats on the Camino: Strays or Pets? Etiquette for Feeding Them

    So, @good_old_shoes, did your darling catigrino go home with you, or does he have a loving home with someone else? The photo of your little catigrino in Praza do Obradoiro when you both arrived is honestly, honestly THE BEST PHOTO I have ever seen on the Forum and it made my day. Seeing your...

    Memorable people on the Camino?

    Hi Nick - I met Fr. Joyful too! It would have been late June 2017. I met him in Santa Catalina de Somoza, just past Astorga. He was very engaging, beginning his conversation with “Hellooo! I’m Fr. Joyful, from Santa Cruz, California!” Yes, he told me too he was walking the Camino as a...
