Five Words, one Theme
When I saw Paula’s words for August I immediately had a theme in my mind. Saint James’ Way has become very popular in the last decade amongst christian and worldly pilgrims, particularly the last stage in Spain. But many routes lead to this last stretch … Continue reading Five Words, one Theme
Checking!
When we go running (or walking or traipsing) on Sundays we follow flour blobs. Three blobs of flour and you are on the right track, aka “true trail”. Every now and again we might encounter a circle like this, aka a check. It means you … Continue reading Checking!

Once upon a time (i.e. pre-COVID) I was on a trail at least once a week usually on a Sunday (big sigh) with friends. One runner started earlier and left a trail (confusing by design) for the others to follow. Hares and hounds, you understand. The trail was laid in chalk and to make sure that everybody understood what was going on there was a chalk talk before leaving. Really unnecessary as the marks were pretty self-explanatory, don’t you think?

An arrow with lines is called “true trail” and if you find this you know you are on the right track, and beer (or water) won’t be too far away.
