Sponsor me to walk to Canterbury
As if cycling 240 km each way from London to Herefordshire and back again wasn’t enough, in a week and a half’s time I’ll be walking with a few others from London to Canterbury.
The planned route
That’s 94 km or 58 miles, in under 48 hours, from Southwark Cathedral to Canterbury Cathedral. It’s not exactly the original pilgrimage route – we’re avoiding the A2 as much as possible, for one thing – and there will be more Tescos Express en route than a mediaeval monarch could have imagined, but it’s similar.
We’re hoping to raise money for the local swimming club, which has suffered from increasing costs and from the temporary closure of the local pool earlier in the year.
Blatant appeal for money follows: please visit our sponsorship page if you’d like to donate.

Week 288: Lost baguette
This comes to you from a field in Gloucestershire, at the end of day two of my human-powered journey to Electromagnetic Field.
Week 287: Network trouble
A mysterious problem afflicted our home internet connection. The symptoms were strange: 50%+ packet loss to the outside internet, and anything that relied on a connection was very unreliable, except my desktop computer, which was also unreliable, but was able to communicate perfectly with the outside world when connected to a VPN.
