      WalkingLester reacted to Peterexpatkiwi's post in the thread Recovering, step by step with Like Like.
      There's always somebody posting about dropping out, or taking a break because they're injured, myself included. There seems to have been a few more than usual just lately, although perhaps that's just that I've got more time than usual to read...

      Your posts also tell a story of a loving father being supportive and empathetic to his daughter’s current needs. Hope she feels better soon. Wishing you and your daughter sunny days for the rest of your time in Spain.

      Let us not go there. Let us not even try ... 😅😅😅. The link leads to COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1546/2006 of 4 October 2006 amending Regulation (EC) No 622/2003 laying down measures for the implementation of the common basic standards on...

      WalkingLester reacted to andywild's post in the thread Medication woes with Like Like.
      Hi all, just a quickie, Has anyone else noticed that the older you get, the larger the ratio of medication: kit you carry in your rucksack? This time round it appears to be around 60% walking clothes and 40% various pills and unguents for my...

      WalkingLester reacted to MikeyC's post in the thread Need to buy day pack in Burgos with Like Like.
      A few years back a fellow pilgrim was sending his pack ahead and was carrying just a snack and water. I had stepped out of the albergue to check the weather. Back in reception I mentioned to him that it was a bit chilly for shorts and a shirt...

      Look for the Chinese bizarre stores. They got great bags and they’re inexpensive.

      WalkingLester reacted to Jodean's post in the thread Need to buy day pack in Burgos with Like Like.
