I Like To Walk It Walk It!!!

Yesterday i was on BBC Radio York talking about writing and poetry and how you get to be a poet and turn it into a job and all that kind of stuff. People seem to be interested in that which is great. I love being on the radio and its something i would like to do more of in the future. But lets get back to the prez. Doing the radio show was the last bit of work i had to do before setting off to Wales to walk the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path. For the last few weeks i have been looking at maps of the walk, reading books and looking for clips on You Tube by people who have done it. I like doing this stuff. Its kind of like research and you find out loads of stuff. Not just about the route you'll be walking and the places where you are going but about the history, the wildlife and alsorts. For example, i will be passing by a place called tenby where a man called Richard Recorde lived. You might not have heard of him but he invented sosmething you will all know about. Richard invented this = Yep, the equal sign. I never knew that!! What did people use before?

All i have to do now is pack my rucksack, drive down to Wales with Andy, my mate who's coming along again and er...walk 186 miles in 12 days. It might rain (it will), it might be windy, we might have a heatwave ( we won't), a mad sheep might chase after us, Andy might get attacked by a goose on a bike, aliens might beam me up in my tent....who knows what'll happen. Exciting innit!!
