Everything On Gold

So what’s been happening today (in my imagination) on the West Highland Way…

Fortunately, to survive, we don’t have to put Everything On Gold.

As wild walks go, the WHW is relatively tame. For instance there are lots of places to fill up with water and a lot of out of the way little tuck shops, with nobody there, except for an honesty box. Try that one in London!

It’s refreshing that this kind of honesty and trust is still around in these “interesting” times. And it’s literally refreshing to get a bottle of cold (ish) fresh orange when you’re tired after having already walked for ten miles.

The views have been fantastic. And being away from the madding crowd is also wonderful. But people, it’s good to be reminded, can be very decent, given half a chance.
