North vs South

It seems that the path of simple fundraising events does not run smoothly and so I have had to change my plans for our fundraising walk in August, its nothing to do with me not wanting to listen to Clare's singing for 5 straight days, or the fact that there is a haunted inn that we are booked into, but unfortunately, my domestic situation has altered and I am unable to leave my beagles for 5 days whilst I head up north to join the others for the walk.
My plan is still to actually walk 100 miles or so, but not in the midge ridden highlands of Scotland, but the beautiful Devon coast.
I have not quite planned my route as yet, but it will involve mostly coastal walks and will take in a lot of the South West Coast path. I have my Fitbit which can track my mileage so I wont be cheating and it might just get a little bit competitive, who knows! More about that next time.

The others will still be in Scotland and following on from earlier blogs, there journey on day three will take them from the hauntings at Drovers Inn at Inverarnan to Crianlarich, which is the official half way point of the walk and takes them past a "Sheep Creep" apparently a low tunnel! From here the journey continues to Tyndrum which is famous for St Fillan's chapel which Robert the Bruce raised to a priory in 1318 - why do so many men come with "the something or other" after their christian name, it was a bit like that in a pub I used to live near, where many of the locals were referred to in this way; Mick the sniff, Mark the book, Dave the plank, Mark the bathroom!
Sorry I digress, what is or was "the Bruce"???? (Answers on a postcard or failing that please tell me what that was all about in a comment if you feel the need)
I suspect Nicola Sturgeon would be happy to have him around now!

It's then onwards through glens and mountainous scenery to the Bridge of Orchy over the river Orchy, which according to wikipedia, is the finest white water river in the UK! On a further couple of miles to their overnight stop at Inveroran.

might need to change the cow picture from a Highland cattle to a Devon ruby red cow for my walk!
