Slightly rippled ....
I woke up feeling like I had the beginnings of a cold after a rubbish night's sleep - not a good way to start the day! Had breakfast taking in the amazing view from the hostel, it's right on the cliff edge. Met up with Merlin from the Merlin Project, one of the charities I'm raising money for, to do a spot of publicity. It's amazing the different looks you get when you're walking with a wizard! Thank you to the nice folks at the hostel who gave me some more funds toward my challenge.
Had a few shots taken around Tintagel, then Merlin became Frank and we carried on towards Boscastle. Here we parted ways and I began the hardgoing walk to Crackington. Saw a few seals and the obligatory Kestrel (up very close). At Rusey cliff I started to feel just a bit anxious as it felt like it was getting late and the path was getting quite tricky - (what if I hurt myself - I wouldn't be found till the next morning?) I banished those thoughts and just appreciated the remote feeling of the cliffs. I came upon some goats and then a waymarker saying only 1.6 miles to Crackington - yippee. A headland later and I came across Frank again - he wanted to check I'd made it alright as it was so late when I left Boscastle. Thanks Frank for Merlin, your company and the meal.

Sara, I think you are a star!! Sorry to have slowed you down so that you left Boscastle later than you would have liked. That is why I travelled to Crackington to make sure you were OK.You arrived o45mins before the deadline I had set as a safety margin. No way would you have been on the path all night. I would have fouind you on my hands and knees if I had to, but at the very least I would have informed the rescue teams. So, come on all you people looking in, click onto a link and add alittle sponsorship to one of the charities. Frank.
