Anyone who has made a donation can get it refunded, or we can forward them to the charities anyway if you'd prefer, just let us know. (5/5)
I'd like to thank everyone who offered support prior to, and during, the effort; you're all wonderful people. (4/5)
We failed to get such a sponsor in place, and as a result it's not possible to fund it ourselves. (3/5)
We were hoping that a big/corporate sponsor would come forward to help with the costs of the expedition - esp accommodation, food. (2/5)
With the greatest regret, I'm reluctantly announcing that the Walk Around Wales will not continue.... (1/5)
So in a nutshell, all is well after 8 days of walking; don't forget to tweet, share, and DONATE to the RNLI & Wales Air Ambulance ;-)
Tomorrow is likely to be the most demanding stretch so far, taking in the mountains between Hay-on-Wye and Pandy
I also had coffee and biscuits in a church in Newchurch; excellent hospitality towards all Offas Dyke walkers. (I made a small donation)
Some first-class walking terrain; open moorland with wide grassy paths, perfect. Great views too :-)
Today's walking has been excellent, easily the most enjoyable of the adventure so far! #walkaroundwales
Very low battery so I'll keep this relatively brief! Suffice to say, I'm camped in the lovely (but very windy) Hay-on-Wye.
I've walked over 100 miles now so about 10% done! Don't forget to share, tweet, donate, etc etc. DM x
A great walk though - some cracking scenery with rolling countryside, swollen rivers, and ominous skies.
A delayed start today as I tried to dodge thunderstorms; almost worked. Much better weather this afternoon
End of day 7 and I'm in Kington; today originally planned as a rest day but trying to make up for the itinerary changes! #walkaroundwales
went to see Dylan today and make sure he has more food for the next few days, he's doing well, photos and news will be up probably tomorrow
