    Camino Ingles Question

    Meson do Vento is about 1 km north of the route and there are a couple of bar restaurants and a petrol station if you need water. I have also heard that there is a mobile shop that visits Bruma but unfortunately I don't know it's schedule.

    Camino Ingles / Celtic Camino to Santiago

    Oh you would definitely qualify if you cycled from Australia;):)

    Camino Ingles / Celtic Camino to Santiago

    As Kirkie has already said, I don't think that it would qualify due to the 200km distance criteria. I would contact the Celtic Camino people, maybe there are other routes within Ireland that would make up the other 100km.

    Sexism in outdoor clothing

    Ah, well I am a bit boring really and like my Olive and Beige. The most colourful thing I wear are my red detailed with yellow heel Karrimor Ksb Shoes. I initially bought the peach and sky blue ones because they were cheaper but when my girlfriend told me that she really liked them, well they...

    Phone phobia and speaking foreign languages

    I appreciate that 30 second panic, I use a percentage coping method when speaking in public and it works like this. The chance of it all going completely wrong leaving me sweating, embarrassed and flustered 5% the chance of it going reasonably well and only feeling slightly sweaty and flustered...

    Phone phobia and speaking foreign languages

    Don't know if you have a smart phone but I found the google translate app very useful last year. It has a conversation mode where you speak in English and it translates and reads out what you want to say in the other language and then switches and reads out the response in English.

    Santiago Cathedral Restoration Completion

    Good post, when I was there I noticed that on some of the main pillars where the Botafumeiro swings; that there appeared to be some of the original paintwork. It kind of spiralled up the columns and from memory it was a faded green colour. My additional question is, does anyone know if they will...

    luggage and shuttle service

    OP - All the information you require is in Peb's post. Cameroni, It sounds like you are planning long k days; the only thing I would say is don't underestimate the downhill sections and why the rush, consider taking 4 days:)
