It's been quite a weird day. Other than a guy in the pub talking to me (who clearly had some problems and kept doing the creepy madeye moody lick of the lips), I've not actually met anyone all day. It involved lots of urban walking yet the wooded section between Torquay and Teignmouth was completely abandoned as it was both difficult and not particularly pretty. It's quite telling that you end up most alone when there are the most people around you. Beyond Teignmouth I just went into mission mode though and I've actually made crazy ground. I've now reached the most Western stretch of the Jurassic coastline and I'm only about 115 miles short of Poole.

Another slow start today. It took everyone ages to get going and by the time we’d all finished breakfast and getting changed it was gone midday.

We set off out to play a round of crazy golf down near the club house (I came second only to John, who to be fair was far better!) and then we sat down on the veranda for lunch. I had a green Thai curry and Becky had Lasagne. I was tempted to have the same, but after trying hers I was glad I didn’t.

Once we returned to the caravan, Jean and John offered to look after Lily whilst we took Wispa to a dog-friendly beach - he hadn’t had the chance to run off lead all week and was getting a bit antsy.

He had a lovely time getting very, very sandy. I had to shower with him after to get it all off.

For the evening we had cheese and crackers and played games. Jean showed us her French impression which had me in hysterics.Read more
