Day Eight: Hawick to Langholm

Update Day Eight

Highs … and lows

28 Celsius. In Scotland. Again. So many warned me of rain, storms, midgies and 14 degrees. Not really happened. What has happened is more donations, more cursing, more grumbling limbs and … across it all a uniformly hospitable, compassionate and engaged Scottish audience. We’ll be sorry to leave this staggeringly beautiful country. Alex, Terry the Titans today. Thanks fellas…26 times. Ice. Massage. Pilates. Tiger balm. What could go wrong? 08.30. Tomorrow. You know the rest.
