Hello from Chymorvah!
This was a lovely place, although we only had a few minutes to change buses and head on towards Falmouth.
Cornwall is really impressing me and I can't wait to see what else there is!

At 10:45 on Saturday morning, the challenge began!
My team decided to do the same challenge as I did in 2020 - get a full set of stationery.
Unlike 6 years ago, I remembered where it was, saving us a lot of time!
Now to get to North Greenwich.

Earlier this week I went to Stratford Westfield, as I was enrolled on a course through work.
It's a big change, as it is the start of me getting promoted to a supervisor!
There's a lot to learn, so let's get busy!

Greetings from Lymington!
I've joined a few friends and had a lovely trip down the SWML.
It was then time to do a new ferry crossing over to Yarmouth IoW!
From there we have a look around the island, with our first stop being Alum Bay Needles!

Once I dropped Susie off at home, I had the mission of trying to get across London, with most trains finishing for the day.
Eventually I made it to Edgware and got picked up.
