Colleen Kathma reacted to Bachibouzouk's post in the thread The Cockleshell Pilgrim, A Medieval Journey to Compostela with
Like.
This book by Katherine Lack landed on my doormat last week. I ordered it having found her Frontstalag 142, The Internment Diary of an English Lady fascinating, not least because my grandmother and aunt must have been interned with Fanny Twemlow... -
Colleen Kathma reacted to MARSKA's post in the thread LIVE from the Camino Taiwan Grannies!!! with
Love - Red heart.
If you are on the CF watch for the fun & energetic group of 6 women from Taiwan, 5 of whom are 70 years plus. Multigenerational family travelling together who exude love and joy from every pore! They call themselves the "Tiawan Grannies". The... -
It takes 8 people to swing it (not saying they're paid but that doesn't mean it should be free). Then you have the cost of maintenance, cleaning, coals/incense, insurance, and if it generates a bit of income so be it. I've heard people getting...

Colleen Kathma reacted to DoughnutANZ's post in the thread Hiking up O Cebreiro in the Rain with Like.
I guess that our opinions are formed by what we are used to. I am 70, going on 71 with reduced lung capacity due to scaring and the walk up to O Cebrerio is just a trot up a hill. It is not a big deal unless you are physically handicapped or...

Ok Pilgrims, I’m starting my first Camino (Frances) in a little over 2 weeks and am “wrapping up” my miscellaneous questions. This is a little trivial (no snarkiness, please): I’m a solo pilgrim. If I stop off at a Bar or Cafe and want a beer or...

Colleen Kathma reacted to Tandem Graham's post in the thread Is there a shuttle bus from CDG Paris airport to Montparnasse train station? with Like.
No direct shuttle bus, but (as the Rome2Rio link shows) options of buses or RER (commuter train)/ Metro. There will be a change involved. I know it's not what you asked, but if you're travelling through Paris, perhaps consider a night *in*...

.... The antipodean clock is ahead of us here in the UK as indeed you are on many other things. If only my father hadn't cancelled his £10 tickets in the 1960s.
