You might be remembering my post of <a href="http://alansloman.blogspot.com/2010/01/southwest-coast-path.html" rel="nofollow"> 7th January 2010</a> when I was moaning about the Cornish Coast Path in Winter... (see the comment section)<br /><br />Yes. The one in Cornwall goes up and down like a Wh8re's Drawers because it cuts across the grain of the land. <br /><br />WHEREAS! The one on Jersey is entirely magical for the reason given in my post of <a href="http://alansloman.blogspot.com/2011/09/jersey-channel-island-way-4-east-coast.html" rel="nofollow"> 1st September</a> where you will see that that is not the case with Jersey!<br />How wonderful is that, eh?<br /><br />Not that I knew any of this before rubbing everything out of my diary and begging them to take me to Jersey....<br /><br />:-)Alan Slomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17966543499033330765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22496677.post-32902890402818828532011-09-05T21:24:04.790+01:002011-09-05T21:24:04.790+01:00Extraordinary!.
I've received loads of emails ...Extraordinary!.<br />I've received loads of emails from commercial concerns of one kind or another over the last couple of years, average about two a week (cheekily trying to gain free publicity), but nothing like this.<br />It's probably a first in the UK.<br /><br />I thought you were not at all keen on coastal walking anyhow!.GeoffChttp://v-g.me.uk/blog/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22496677.post-26444308482003010432011-09-03T12:50:12.505+01:002011-09-03T12:50:12.505+01:00Geoff:

It was hell, but someone had to do it.<br /><br />I took off my midge head net after only twenty minutes or so in the dining room at the hotel on the first night when I realised that I hadn't seen a single midge.Alan Slomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17966543499033330765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22496677.post-65383623954035439862011-09-03T11:44:06.591+01:002011-09-03T11:44:06.591+01:00No midges, no windmills, sunny days with good food...No midges, no windmills, sunny days with good food and drink, <br />and all for free!<br />It sounds terrible,hope you have a great time.Geoff Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17125634807322399838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22496677.post-86347168039739628982011-08-31T18:44:49.705+01:002011-08-31T18:44:49.705+01:00Norma...
