Day 6. Wednesday, 9th April 2014. Netherholm to Sanquhar. 14 miles.
Enjoyed evening meal last night with the family and breakfast this morning. Set off at 9.30 and spent the next hour and a half walking back up hill to rejoin the SUW where I left it yesterday. , Black Hill then soon into yet more woodland. Oh dear. In one section, along a fire break, there were 5 instances where multiple conifers had been blown down and were completely blocking the trail. It is so annoying and frustrating having to work out major detours to get aroundnd these blockages. Come on you Scots. Get a grip and clear this National Trail of yours. The trunks would make great cabers for you to go and toss. Once out of the forrest, a very rewarding walk up and over a couple of minor hills brought me down into Sanquhar. Bought a paper in town to discover the Tractor Boys had given Huddersfield a 2 0 thrashing last night. That will call for an extra ale 'on the night' Weather. Guess what. No rain all day. It was mainly cloudy with some welcome, !warm sunny intervals. Windy again upstairs so still put my IT hat on. Poll update. Ayes 2 Noos 7 knee vootin' 2 Doon't knooows 2 |
