It's now seven weeks since I returned from doing he Frances and what a wonderful 40 days it was. I'm sure there are possible pilgrims out there that worry that they may be too old to walk the camino, but I can assure you there is no age barrier...
I fainted twice on the Camino. The first time was abut 20 km east of Bilbao. I had l planned to walk 30 km to an albergue but it was completo. I had to walk another 6 km to find a bed. I had had food poisoning about two weeks before starting...
Maybe we need to rekindle that thread about 'buying a village' for Caminoholics to retire to? :rolleyes:
Be careful Hector, we might all become your neighbours! :oops:
The nice thing is they seldom get vandalised. One in my town got stolen a few years ago and reappeared, freshly washed with a note saying sorry, a few days later. Word spread that the thief's Mum found out and made him put it back. 🎅
I'm just bored waiting in for a parcel delivery but noticed this week that the Guerrilla Knitters are out again this year - do you get anything similar where you live? It used to be just pillar boxes but seems to have spread to posts and bollards.
