. “A journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step….” So said Laozi in 6th century BC China. Well, this journey, from Rutland to Ulgueira, near Colares, in Portugal, is almost exactly 1000 miles, excluding the 478 nautical miles from Plymouth to Santander. And my single step took me down the M5 for a relaxing evening with my friends Richard and Helen, en route to Plymouth. Not only a delicious dinner and a good night’s sleep, but the topping up of kit I’d forgotten – poo bags and toothpaste. Has to be something.
