4 days . . .

I depart on Monday. This morning I thought it would be wise to book the Youth Hostels, and to no surprise to anyone with a brain, two of them were fully booked.

Nevertheless, contingency plans have been made, but will involve a little more intense walking at some points. Burley is now off the route (which is a crying shame, as I would've loved to walk through the New Forest), as is Cholderton. I'm hopefully going to spend an extra night in Winterslow (courtesy of my friend Joe)

There was some miscommunication with my uncle (whom I was meant to be staying with on Monday) as he will be in France, but thankfully Skinner is putting me up for the night - what a legend!

I have emailed some churches in Warminster, so hopefully that'll come up trumps - if not, we'll be sleeping al-fresco, which is okay providing it doesn't rain.

From there on in, it's plain sailing to Bath and onto Bristol, where I am staying with Nathan, which will be a rad good time.

Sponsorship: a few people have expressed an interest in sponsoring me, but I haven't got any names yet. If you contact me on Twitter or Facey, or by phone or email, I will put your name down for any amount you wish to give. Please do, I'd really appreciate it!

Don't forget, Twitter hashtag #JulezWalks - all related tweets will appear on this page! If you want to contact me, I will have my phone on me, and I will receive DM's (not mentions - not sure why, but just no) from Twitter as texts.

More to come soon!
