Hi, I have just become a member and am amazed at all the people posting on here(I am something of a forum/blog avoider normally) I am going to be 50 this year and for about 15-20 years I have planned to do this walk when I was 50. I can't remember where or when I found out about the pilgrims walk(I am not religious) but it has always appealed to me. Unfortunatley i am not going to be able to do the walk this year as when i can go coincides with my older daughter sitting important exams and my younger daughter finishing primary school and going to high school. So I am going to do the walk in my 50th year either April or early June 2013. I better start to get organised and informed. I have chosen not to watch the fil the "way" as I don't want to be influenced by what I see there. I want it to be my own new experience. So I would struggle to explain why i want to do this but I know i will. Why are you doing/going to do it? :?: posting.php?mode=post&f=14#
