Today has arrived! After work I’ll be catching a train to Edale to live my dream of walking the @pennine_way A dream which has been gently fermenting for the last 40 years and it’s now pretty fizzy. Just me, the trail and @Ultra_Damo ’s guidebook - what could possibly go wrong?!

So we are still cheating this season. We’ve earned points while still breaking the salary cap. And now we are bleating about other clubs having an agenda in not allowing us time to get under the cap? Shameful. I preferred it when we were poor but honest. #saracens

What a night at Black Sail. And what a glorious early morning too. An experience I will never forget and a highlight of the most incredible journey. Onwards now all the way to St Bees. Have made it passed Ennerdale Bridge and think I may have just seen my first glimpse of sea 😍

Lost for words today. I had some options but chose the gentle Grisedale route, so glad I did, it was stunning. I was met by a new friend at the Tarn and we walked together, she pointed out the fells and we chatted like old friends. And then went to the pub. Perfect ❤️
