I just went and read this whole series, and can I say how impressed I am by you and all of the other bloggers for doing this? Good on ya, as my aussie friend used to say.
I’ll bet it felt nice to get home and sleep in your bed and have a hug from Little Elf, huh?

Oh God it did! In fact, she attached herself to me for half an hour. And dudelet was so pleased to see me, he didn’t even get jealous. He just clamped on on the the other side.

Relief, triumph and exhaustion were never captured together so well.
Congratulations.
I couldn’t have done it. Literally, I couldn’t.

After being down for most of the week, I was surprised at the lift of adrenaline I received from a very real sense of accomplishment that came over me upon arriving at the end of the trail.

Weird, wasn’t it? I seem to recall eating two chocolate ice creams, three bags of crisps and chasing it down with a pint and a scotch AND not being sick.
