    Snoring

Hopefully I’ll avoid Walter Mitty when I begin my pilgrimage in Sarria next Friday. Sympathies to his Girlfriend Pam and good luck to everyone embarking on their camino over...

    Struggling with sock choice

    I’m currently preparing for my first camino ( Oct 03) equipment and training coming along well apart from socks. Got a size up in solomon boots last year and they are excellent.
