End point and planning update
I’ve heard from Lou and - as I expected - she’s gracefully declined the world’s press turning up on her doorstep! Instead the walk will finish at St James’ Park, home of Newcastle United.
Now, I’ve emailed the club to ask if there’s anything they can do to help. I have no idea what response I’ll get. I may end up just finishing in the street outside the Strawberry. In my wildest fantasies I’ll get to finish inside the stadium. It never hurts to ask - so I have!
Regardless, this now means I have a point from which to start calculating. I should have a couple of days around Sydney when I’ll have time to sit down and work out what, where, how long and so forth.
At present I’m in a very pleasant coastal town on Tasmania, internet costs a bomb and I have no mobile reception!
